But at least if my self hosted service down I know the solution is in my hands. And I can give reasonable expectations when it will be back up. This in my opening is far better than looking at a red Dot on a status page. Man have we lost some real know how and decided big sevises are the "way to go". It's not if your service -- self hosted or not -- it's when your service goes down. I run both a gogs server and depend on GitHub. In the last 3 years GitHub has been down for my repos at least 2 times. My gogs instance has had zero down time ( minus breif upgrades ). We really need to start checking out self on the dependency of 3 party service. There is no guarantee they will be available forever or that they will work the same 10 years from now. And if your build system depends on any of these services good luck with useful code eacrow.
