To all of those proposing self-hosted GitLab: we did it for 6+ years in my company, and it's not always a smooth sailing. We had our own runners and we made it auto-upgrade across docker images daily before business…

No, the biggest problem was the hardware. It replaced a well-known decades-old paradigm of engage-only-on-user-input buttons with a glowing slider that would always engage out of turn. I can't count the number of times…

I have stainless steel and anti-stick pans from a high end brand, and with one of the cheapest induction stoves a liter of water boils in literally 2m, compared to 10m+ of gas. Cast iron pots have additional challenges…
As a customer, thank you, Fastmail. I recall reading a few months back that this was rumored to be in the works, glad it panned out.
