Self-hosting your Git with Forgejo
We put together a short visual rundown of Forgejo for anyone weighing a move off GitHub/GitLab: repos, PRs, code review, issue tracking, and a familiar web UI, all on hardware you control. It's light enough to run on a small VPS.
For transparency: Forgejo runs anywhere, so treat this as a how-to rather than a pitch for us.

Hetzner asks: What line on a tutorial immediately gives you “the ick”?
Have you ever been reading a tech tutorial, and then you suddenly see a piece of information in it that makes you go, “I can’t take this tutorial seriously anymore. I’m out!” What was it?

Our Hetzner Blog is online now!
We’ve wanted a place to write up the things we find interesting about running infrastructure, and to explain the basics for people just getting into hosting and server administration.
We’re only scratching the surface so far, with more on the way. What should we write about next? We’d love to hear what you think.

New enterprise servers: DX154 & DX294.
We’ve added two new enterprise servers based on the latest Dell PowerEdge™ technology with Intel® Xeon® Gold “Granite Rapids” CPUs, up to 86 cores, and flexible storage options.
The DX154 is powered by Xeon® Gold 6741P CPU with 48 cores, while the DX294 uses a Xeon® Gold 6787P CPU with 86 cores. Both are designed for demanding applications and can be configured with storage options that fit different infrastructure use cases.
Happy to hear what workloads you’d use them for.

What advice would you give to someone who is just getting started with self-hosting?
Self-hosting is easier to get into than most people think.
You don't need to be an expert to start, just a bit of curiosity and a willingness to learn. The tricky part is mostly knowing what to focus on first.
We put together 7 tips that cover what actually matters when getting started: htznr.li/sh2_rd
What do you think is missing from the list? What lessons did you have to learn the hard way that you wish you’d known sooner?

Tooling has caught up & self-hosting isn’t niche anymore.
Running your own infra means that you get control over how things deploy, ownership of your data and runtime, and also monthly capped costs.
Coolify handles builds, deploys, environments, and rollbacks. You can run it with a Hetzner Cloud VPS by making use of our one-click app and you’ve got your own deployment platform in minutes. For the curious: htznr.li/sh_rd
