I was just looking into this today but it seems pricey. $29/user/month for basic features like codeowners and defining pr approval requirements. Going with Forgejo.

Wait, what? So you're on the hook for backups, upgrades, etc. and you have to pay them for the privilege? I thought GitLab was free as in speech and beer.

It's an Open Core model. You can deploy the free version, but it lacks some pretty important features like SSO.

But that $30 per month per user is also the cost for their cloud-hosted version. It also includes quite a bit of CI/CD runtime.

I think i will slowly start moving to self hosted git intra at my homelab.

Self-hosted git is absolutely worth it.

or forgejo!

Forgejo should 100% be people's default for self hosting

Yeah man. Forgejo (albeit it being a weird name from a language that nobody wants to use), is doing very well in my homelab.

When I worked at the univerity we used Gitea.

Every job outside of univerity I had used Gitlab self hosted. While I don't like the UI or any aspect of Gitlab a lot, it gets the job done.

I use Gitea already... I haven't seen Forejo before today. Im now curious if it is worth the switch.
reply
Forejo was originally forked from Gitea

forgejo doesn't need half a supercomputer to run it
