Leaving GitHub? Gitea, managed for you.
Honest switching guide · Gitea is open source · runs on the €9/mo plan
Your code, your CI minutes, your rules. Gitea is the open-source answer to GitHub — and on ezhost you get it without touching a server: one click, your own subdomain, TLS, daily encrypted backups.
Launch Gitea — free trial →Free trial — no credit card, cancel monthly.
What you give up (honestly)
- GitHub's network effect: PRs from strangers, Actions marketplace, Copilot integration.
- Free tier generosity for public repos.
What you gain
- Gitea is a fast, lightweight GitHub-style forge — repos, issues, PRs, CI — on your own subdomain.
- Private repos without per-seat pricing.
- EU-hosted, exportable, no vendor telemetry.
How switching works
1. Launch Gitea on ezhost (about a minute). 2. Export your data from GitHub. 3. Import — most apps have direct importers; if you get stuck, email support@ezhost.app and a human helps. And because Gitea is standard open-source software, you can leave ezhost anytime with your data — that exit door is the point.
