This is the real issue. We’re currently migrating from GitLab+Jira to GitHub. I did most of the migration, including our CI/CD with a self-hosted runner, and it was… fine.

The straw that broke the camel’s back was that Claude managed cloud agents are awkward to use with anything other than GitHub. In general, we realized that the whole world was on GitHub and we were swimming upstream.

But the original mistake was separating issue tracking and source control when we didn’t need all that power. Everything is so much simpler if you don’t have to maintain those integrations.

Maybe they’ll really enshittify GitHub in the future. We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it.
