Should I prefer GitHub over GitLab for mix packages code hosting?
Hello people,
I was wondering which hosting would be preferable for mix packages code. I am currently using GitLab as it is open source and has a Continuous Integration I am more familiar with. On another hand, all packages I’ve been looking at so far are hosted on GitHub. Is there a reason for that?

I personally prefer GitLab. There isn’t any technical reason to use GitHub over GitLab.
I guess one reason would be that mix dependencies can take a github key where you don’t have to put in the full URL. However I refuse to use that out of spite 
not sure why the core team decided it was OK to support one platform over another.

Yeah, it bothers me too. It would be nice to see gitlab in there to make it slightly less “advertised” to use github.
