It would be too painful to move D to Gitlab or another medium?

There is no need to switch, git is a DVCS.

So the org should be able to operate a parallel (free) repo 
instance on gitlab.com, Codeberg or wherever.  Just having the 
automation, issues, etc running on GH.

Then at least there is redundancy in the source repos, for when 
one specific site is unreachable...
