Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

That's cool. Any reason why you went with a self-hosted GitHub runner over making the full jump to a self-hosted Gitea instance + runner?
This, but Forgejo instead of Gitea.
I tried this last week and it wasn’t very good. It was poorly documented, and when it failed out on a simple java CI, I just went back to act.
Yeah, the Forgejo documentation was dreadful when I last looked, it really showed its origin as a Gitea replacement for people already using (and understanding) Gitea.
My main reason was honestly laziness 😅 . I just went with what was quickest to set up. I also hadn’t realiced I could have two upstreams on my repo: one public-facing on GitHub (because I’m still in college and trying to build in public for future job opportunities) and another self-hosted on Gitea or GitLab for CI/CD.
That actually sounds like a great setup, so I’ll definitely look into it now. Thanks for the recommendation!
