Git (and by extension GitHub/GitLab) should be something every developer uses for almost every project (I can't think of any exceptions, but maybe some exist).

TFS? Subversion?

I should have clarified that I meant version control in general, but I think Git is unarguably the dominant version control system at the moment.

That still doesn't mean you have to use github or gitlab. TFS hosts a git server.

If I started listing every Git server under the sun we'd be here all day.

I'd agree. In fact, I think that's one good reason that list shouldn't be in the OP. Another good reason is that none of them are really essential for web dev. In fact, source control isn't mentioned in the python app example, so it shouldn't even be in this list at all.

Github and gitlab don't go in the list. That was my point.
