It's kind of a poisoned well situation. Whoever would purchase them would lead to the departure of many disgruntled users who basically were with Gitlab to stick it to Microsoft.
I've also never felt compelled to use Gitlab. They literally offer no significant advantage other than being an alternative to Github.
If I started over, I'd go with Drew's Sourcehut hub for the sake of actually shooting for something different.
I don't really see who would pay $8B for this business which has no moat-future.
