Codeberg is a free/nonprofit hosted instance of Forgeo. Forgeo is a fork of Gitea created by Codeberg about a year ago when the governance of Gitea changed suddenly.
You can selfhost either Forgeo or Gitea.
There are other hosted instances of forgeo and gitea also available.
Gitlab is a hosted instance if gitlab.
You can also self host gitlab.
I assume there are other hosted instances of gitlab tho i cant think of any off the top of my head.
I don’t think you understand what I mean. It has its “main instance” which most people use. It’s just open source so you have the option of self hosting.
Codeberg is supposedly located in the EU while not requiring self-hosting, maybe that’s why.

Is there a reason I shouldn’t use gitea locally?
Uh well idk you personally so hard to say.
For me i like the remotely hosted ones.
Lots of other people run gitea locally.
What’s the point of a local git server? If you’re after that why not just use a regular Git repo?
Easier ci/cd integration and viewing diffs from my phone on the toilet. Nothing I can’t do with regular git, it would just take more effort.
Makes sense, though GitLab very much doesn’t require self-hosting
I know, but most people are lazy these days (and self-hosting stuff in the EU has become a legal battle against every week’s new rules).

I know, but most people won’t. :-)
