The plan has *never* been GitHub. The original plan was self hosted with a

How does the mirroring work? It seems 99% of the dev world is using GitHub now
so it's a pity to have to learn new tools if we don't have to. I'm very happy
with GitHub myself and use it often.
If you know github, then gitlab will not be that different. (though yes,
the menu structure is not 1 to 1 => so a few minutes to find some of the
features)
First of all, most work on the code is done in git => on your PC. So
that is identical.
Issue trackers are similar. gitlab offers a few things on top (like
issue boards, a configurable view of issues grouped by some criteria)
"pull requests" are called "merge request", otherwise similar too.

Apparently (according to Michael) github credentials can even be used
for login ...
