+
+It's been a year[^fn:1] since I said _sayonara_ to GitHub and started hosting my own git.
+As it turns out, it is very easy.
+I used Stagit[^fn:2] as my UI, but I grew tired of it.
+It's easy, takes no resources and looks _l33t_.
+However, it is also difficult to navigate and use.
+
+What I want to run is Forgejo[^fn:3] but the binary is not in OpenBSD and I really don't want to recompile it all the time after every updated.
+They are however working on federation[^fn:4] and I strongly believe that is where future lies.
+I will move to Forgejo as soon as it is one `pkg_add` away.
+
+For now, I moved to Gitea[^fn:5].
+
+While is an _overkill_ for my dotfiles, it's also not huge - takes 60-100 Mb of ram, so it's acceptable.
+It is also cute and allows me to share my code easily with fiends and family[^fn:6].
+
+You can see it under [michal.sapka.me/git/](https://michal.sapka.me/git/).
