Looking into possibly replacing my GitLab instance, as I find it bloated and heavy on both hardware and maintenance compared to alternatives.

Currently I'm looking at:

  • GitTea
  • Forgejo, as GitTea turned into a for-profit, otherwise that would be the clear choice
  • OneDev

So I'm wondering what the people on here use, and if they have any other suggestions or opinions?

I'd say the main benefit gained is sovereignty and a sense of place. This is not for personal use, but rather for a computer enthusiast association that I'm part of, so having our own git to integrate with the rest of our services makes sense. Throw on branding and link it to our SSO.
