How so? We've been self-hosting Gitlab for 2.5 years now (maybe more?). Besides a regular update (through apt) we haven't had any trouble. Team of 5 developers w/ a dozen or so repos and basic CI/CD builds. I highly recommend it.

We didn't have a better SLA than hosted GitHub when self-hosting GitLab, and then there's the extra cost of maintaining the instance, the CI runners, the DB, the networking, configuration and so on. Wasn't worth it for us after using self-hosted for 2+ years with a tech team ranging between 10-25. On top of that, most of the team thinks GitHub has a better UX and enjoy using it more.
