Comment on Git repository storage/forge recommendations?

I assume that by now you’ve made a decision, so if I may I’d like to chip in and ask what’s the benefit of self-hosting a Git instance, like the ones mentioned, over using existing free services like GitHub or Codeberg to host your code? What do you gain by hosting this yourself, apart from privacy and security?

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.
