Self hosting git repos can be super minimal. If you don’t have a lot of users or repos, just use ssh. Hell you can host a repo on a local SMB network share eben.
Reason I went or self-hosting Forgejo is to know it when federation comes along for real.
I'd love being able to federate my self-hosted Forgejo with my friends self-hosted Forgejo servers.

I wish I could upvote this a hundred times.
If you’re not stuck on git, give fossil a try. It’s a distributed source code version control with an integrated bug tracker, wiki, forum, and more. All that in in one 3 MB sized binary.
It can even mirror to GitHub and export/import git repositories.
It’s very easy to host yourself.
True, although it's nice to have a web UI. And I haven't tried it myself but there's Forgejo actions which seems useful if you need it.
Yes it's trivial to host a repo, and then you have achieved approximately 2% of a forge.
