Gitea has a ton of issues, sadly. We self-hosted an instance where we had a number of mirrors and whatnot to have redundant copies of third-party dependencies.

Gitea has a ton of issues, sadly. We self-hosted an instance where we had a number of mirrors and whatnot to have redundant copies of third-party dependencies. The server would deadlock, mirror tasks would time out and then couldn't be restarted, etc. We filed an issue (or maybe two) and the developers were... eh. A bit rude, to be honest. Dismissive that it was really an issue, where restarting and deleting/re-configuring was a massive PITA. Therefore, I can't really rec Gitea myself. I wish something like it existed though. That's for sure. Gitlab is just too bloated for my taste and our needs.
