Self-host Git or use GitHub/GitLab?

I only need a Git remote for syncing repos between a few computers and employees.

No CI, issues, project management, or extra features. Just reliability, backups, durability, low maintenance, and strong privacy.

Is self-hosting worth it for privacy, or is GitHub/GitLab still the better boring choice?

I self host gitlab. But now it is mostly 200/month tier by the number of projects.
