Gitea + Nexus + Drone CI is what I've been using for a while and I really like it. I dumped GitLab after it became obvious they have no interest in serving the low end (ie: small users). I have no regrets. Gitea is a much better fit for me. Maybe I'm bias because I've become accustomed to Gitea, but I really feel like Gitea augments my workflow while GitLab and GitHub are trying to usurp my workflow. I use GitHub, but only for push mirroring when I want to use something like Cloudflare Pages / Functions that do GitOps style managed deployment. As for an extra layer of auth, I think Cloudflare Access makes a lot of sense for small users. Put everything behind Cloudflare, use split horizon DNS for LAN access, and rely on Cloudflare to pre-auth all users before they can connect via the internet.
