Choosing a Git self host server (alien.top)

Hello fellow self hosters,

I'm thinking about self hosting a git server, instead of using GitHub.

I have closed my options down to Gitea and Soft-Serve

I know that you can't really compare the two because they are very different one has a GUI and another is terminal based, but I really love the two and I can't choose between them, I'm kind of torn apart.

I guess I need a third-person perspective from people that know their stuff.

(Sorry if this is considered a low effort post, I'm new to this)

If your team is small (or just you), I've been super happy not using any kind of git host and just pushing to a bare repo via SSH.
