Gitlab is moving to a three-tier product subscript...
Yes, I'm fairly certain it is. We switched to the SaaS because of that, it wasn't worth the hassle of self-hosting when you get all the responsibility and still pay the same price.

What? I thought the draw of GitLab is that itβs open source. Anyone can download it and run it on a server without paying a dime.

So it's missing everything you'd pay GitLab for.

You would also need to reimplement the paid features yourself. Only the core (free) gitlab is open source.
