A large chunk of companies I've worked for or consulted for had their own on-prem Gitlab. I think they chose correctly.

Codeberg runs open source Forgejo, and you could on-prem that too (for no license cost), if it suits your needs.

GitLab is more powerful in some ways, but early startups might want to look at Forgejo first.

Sorry, but there are a million things to do. Paying someone to self-host Forgejo isn't even on that list. We'll just pay someone at the moment.

On perm Gitlab has a ton of problems too.

We had zero in the last 7 years. But we are only a small team of 8.

For examples? Never ran into them myself but I don't do ops.

I don't do ops myself so I don't know the exact details but sometimes Gitlab is down or there are strange issues with CI/CD breaking.
