Unless you have the (ops) capacity to host it yourself reliably, chances are GitHub will be up more than your self-hosted solution.
As I'm typing this, I'm waiting for GitHub to recover so I can deploy an update to a rather important project for a big client. However, I'm happy it's their engineers to be scrambling to fix their git hosting, instead of me context switching from my work and rushing to duct-tape piece of plumbing I really don't care to think about.

- grumpy8 7y ago> self-host git over ssh more reliably than github. Host where? That host may be down. If it's local, then you run into other problems trying to access it remotely. Still, I find github to be down quite a lot lately which is concerning. It doesn't stop me from working, I just can't review PRs and get changes.. but I would be more worried if I were using github actions stopping me from releasing a hotfix.
