Gitea, as someone using GitLab. Both will intefrate with editors though GitLab's MR/ Issues tend to have more mature integrations (if you want that in your editor). GitLab is good for teams or when you want to play with a fully featured CI/CD and have a solid Issue/ MR System. It however is also quite a hassle to maintain sometimes though the omnibus installations have gone a long way. Also be prepared to spare some RAM. Gitea on the other hand is light and comes with some QoL things like non-paywalled Repository mirroring and compatibility with GitHubs CI. It's also a bit snappier and very easy to run. The ressource usage also reflects this both from disk space and RAM. It's kinda like comparing vscode to a full blown IDE.
