Gitea : light and selfhosted
Nah, use Forgejo,
https://forgejo.org/compare-to-gitea/
Forked from Gitea when they went full for-profit
Edit: Forgot to mention, Codeberg is a non-profit hosted instance of Forgejo, so you might already be using it
Shit, I didn't know that ๐
All good, I was using gitea until I recently found out about forgejo. Plus they have a good migration guide if youโd like to switch ๐

Yep, running my own instance for years now.
To be fair though Gitea is by default much lighter than alternatives... because it's also minimalist. There are but default no runners, no testing environments, etc that e.g. Gitlab provides.
+1 for Gitea.
I recently set it up on a raspberry pi that was/is sitting mostly idle, in a docker container :)
