I can confirm that upkeep of Gitlab is rather easy and does not take much time. Just the occasional update every few weeks. For its size it is also quite robust and the integrations it offers work well. The only thing I can really complain about are the constant UI changes that do not actually improve anything. I fell they are just changes for change's sake to keep some frontend devs busy.
