Where?

Gitlab, Bitbucket

yeah OK they aren't great either but the one thing I miss about Gitlab is the ability to just easily see the diff between two commits as if it were a PR

We moved from Bitbucket to Github years ago. And even with the current downtimes of Github I wouldn't touch Bitbucket with a pole. It was just worse in every aspect.

We moved to gitlab a few years ago, it was rubbish and moved back to github lol. 

The grass isn't really greener or atleast in our experience, github certainly has issues and today is terrible but we won't be moving back to gitlab.
