Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I assume that by now you've made a decision, so if I may I'd like to chip in and ask what's the benefit of self-hosting a Git instance, like the ones mentioned, over using existing free services like GitHub or Codeberg to host your code? What do you gain by hosting this yourself, apart from privacy and security?
I'd say the main benefit gained is sovereignty and a sense of place. This is not for personal use, but rather for a computer enthusiast association that I'm part of, so having our own git to integrate with the rest of our services makes sense. Throw on branding and link it to our SSO.
