Self-hosting a Git Forge is very feasible. Closest hosted alternative platform is GitLab but I don't think it's still EU since it was listed on NASDAQ. Being a remote company, they don't list a headquarters. I don't know where their servers are based.

    Yeah itโ€™s not hosted in the EU. From their privacy policy:

    Sharing Personal Data Across National Borders. Our Services are hosted in the United States and information we collect will be stored and processed on our servers in the United States.

    There are some smaller providers that also offer Git via Forgejo or Gitea like Disroot. That might be fit for private use, but I havenโ€™t personally tried it. Codeberg is great for more public facing FOSS projects but given their size Iโ€™d throw them a donation if youโ€™re going to depend on it beyond personal scale.

    That said, I just selfhost Forgejo using Coolify on a VPS in my home country. My goal is to migrate at some point to self hosting in my home, eventually.

    Forgejo was really easy to set up with docker
