Hey Josh.
I'm not a github power user, but jeesh, without git my ass would be grass.
What did we do before git? Ran CVS and other painful things. Sure some old
diehards love their SVN (insert dusty VCS of choice), but I think git has
brought easy access Version Control a long way. It can still tangle you up
royally, but overall its a lifesaver.
So, that being the case, I want to choose a horse for the long run. I'd like a
service similar to github that's going to be dependable and there in a decade.
I'm not looking for free and I might be skeptical of free: is the business
model solid? I'm more concerned with solid basics and a open source ethos.
That's why I wanna migrate from Github. I think I'm leaning towards Gitlab
with this in mind.
Thanx all for your valuable insight and suggestions.

I don't wanna support MS, but Github is cool and just works. What are my
righteous alternatives that won't upset my precious repositories?
What features of github are you looking to support?
I'll second BitBucket; we use it and it's pretty great. Integration with
Jira, pretty good PR Review tooling, all the bells and whistles you want
from a "git repo management" perspective … but Oracle pays, so I don't
know how the features scale down as a function of cost.
