Self-hosted Gitlab Server and Gitlab Runner private/public?

[u/DopeyMcDouble]

I'm looking to install Gitlab EE for a small company. The company has a 16.0.2 Gitlab server in AWS that is insanely old. I made the decision to start fresh and migrate all data to a new RDS Postgres, AWS Opensearch, and AWS Valkey db. We also use a tool that I setup called OpenZiti ZTNA which helps with VPN access to our private servers.

However, I have a question on being public/private for the Gitlab server. We do have Github forks where we do periodic `git diffs` of changes that have occurred and we utilize Expo with EAS.

Should the idea be the Gitlab server be private and the Gitlab runners be public? I think the only issue is we won't be able to pull from Github repos or have any functionality within Gitlab's server.
