"When I want to see what has been happening on SQLite, I visit the timeline and in a single screen I see a summary of the latest changes, on all branches. In a few clicks, I can drill down as much detail as I want. I can even do this from a phone.

GitHub and GitLab offer nothing comparable. The closest I have found is the network, which is slow to render (unless it is already cached), does not offer nearly as much details, and scarcely works at all on mobile."

This is a valid point. I've always wondered why it seems Github goes out of its way to hide the typical commit tree navigation that so many git clients support (Sourcetree, gitk, tortoisegit, etc).
