Exclusive: GitLab plans to delete dormant projects in free accounts
GitLab plans to automatically delete projects if they've been inactive for a year and are owned by users of its free tier.has learned that such projects account for up to a quarter of GitLab's hosting costs, and that the auto-deletion of projects could save the cloudy coding collaboration service up to $1 million a year. The policy has therefore been suggested to help GitLab's finances remain sustainable.
Geoff Huntley, an engineer at Gitpod, an open-source advocate, and participant in the open .Net community, described the policy as “absolutely wild.”. “For someone to delete all that code is destruction of the community. They are going to destroy their brand and goodwill."
