If you're worried about hosting anything on the open web because fucking crawlers for LLMs are overloading indie websites, maybe you'd rather browse your git repo via SSH:
https://github.com/charmbracelet/soft-serve
Have you used Soft Serve? Are you aware of any similar projects for browsing git repos over SSH?
Big caveats:
* Charm (the company behind it) has taken VC funding, and therefore is probably doomed
* Last VC round was lead by "Gradient, Google’s AI-focused venture fund". They're all-in on AI bullshit

Finally, if you really need a full code forge, with issue tracking and everything, what is the simplest, most light-weight code forge you can self-host?
Is it Forgejo? "Lightweight: Forgejo can easily be hosted on nearly every machine. Running on a Raspberry? Small cloud instance? No problem!" https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo
That sounds great to me, but is Forgejo simple enough that I won't regret taking on the maintenance burden? Is there something even faster?
