Basically, what the title says. I’m a C, C+, C# … Basically, a C languages dev. Work on Video Games mostly, but I like doing other projects as well. Working on some larger ones like in Unreal and Godot that need some big boy space / CI time so I’ve set off on a small self hosting journey.

Got Nginx set up with Gitea at the moment, but am open to Gitlab, etc.

I was wondering if it’s easy to setup these services for LFS space / CI runtime rental for a few buddies of mine just to handle management and potential rental costs depending on how far that goes.

I’m also wondering if Gitea or GitLab would be better for an endeavor like this? And I realize I wouldn’t make a huge profit or anything, this would mostly be to mitigate maintenance costs and give my buddies some good deals on CI run time for Unreal or Godot Exports.

    I wouldn’t even think about charging anyone for anything until you get it all setup and dialed in with backups, etc and are sure you know how to keep the service running.

      Yes, I have the infrastructure setup. Shits got like 3 backups including a very hard offline 12 TB backup WD blue drive that’s absolutely purely for being nothing but backups for this server
