I didn't hear about reveal.js. I was considering impress.js (I've known this tool for some time already) as a tool to make my next presentation but I think reveal is better choice in my situation (I think it's easier to use and has everything I need). Thanks for the link!
I think this presentation/page isn't simple enough. You use too much different fonts and styles (there are slides with regular, bold and italics style in one sentence). I liked the rocket-shape of presentation though. It's just my opinion, I'm not an expert.
I've recently discovered GitLab and known only current UI. After seeing those old UI screenshoots I think previous interface was better. Current version is highly "inspired" by GitHub (which has very good UI imo) but somehow has worse UI/UX for me (but I'm using it only for a month or 2, so maybe it's just my first impression). I wish there was some kind of "theme" module for GitLab.

I know this. Second question is not directely connected to the first one, I wrote "let's say I build my product" and asked about its promotion.

I don't think I'm making excuses. I'm aware I have problem and ask for some possible solutions. However you are (at least partialy) right about giving up power. This is a good point. I'm in the proccess of taking control, I'm really changing for better. I've changed some parts of my life I couldn't change in the past (because in the past I was just talking about that, without any real action), and still there is a lot to improve. And you know what? Responses here are really valuable for me, now I see the path I should go to change one of the worst of my flaws.
