Regarding GitHub’s relative rating against Gitlab
(https://www.gnu.org/software/repo-criteria-evaluation.html), I’m not
sure why the former is marked down for having a page about export
controls, when Gitlab is governed by the same laws (mentioned in
https://about.gitlab.com/terms/).

Likewise the fact that GitHub has the list of takedowns
(https://github.com/github/gov-takedowns/tree/master/Russia) is probably
a function of its size and popularity rather than policy differences
with Gitlab (unless Gitlab has or has promised to fight takedowns more
aggressively; if they have, that should be noted in the repository
evaluation.
