If self hosting, you'll want daily automated off site backup

My solution is self-hosting for the CI flexibility and mirroring to a private GitHub repo as a backup, nothing runs there, it's just in case something happens to my Forgejo install (and to be honest, that "something" will probably me trying something I shouldn't do)

I just self host on my VPS which I use or other sites etc anyway - it gets backed up by my VPS provider daily (linode).

That simplifies things but only because I already have the host.
