GitKraken open Private Repository
Installing older version of Gitkraken is the only solution I guess to work on private repo if you want it for free and without student developer pack.
From the release notes, the last version to support private repo is v6.5.1.

Does this still work please? I have installed version 6.5.1, blocked IP address and still getting the "Disable to open private repo..." report. Using Ubuntu 20.04.
Thanks!

I dont think so. Right bottom shows me current version of GitKraken which is 6.5.1 (photo). I was using it with student licence before, the student licence expired yesterday so the problem began with it.

I have the same issue. Downloaded 6.5.1 but it still reconognize my GitLab repository as private and then ask for view plans or close the repository. Weird. Of course there is no update, just 6.5.1 version. My OS Ubuntu 21.10

You need to checkout repository from console as standard repository, then from gitkraken just select open repository. Don't use GitLab repository function
