Self-hosting a Git Forge is very feasible. Closest hosted alternative platform is GitLab but I don’t think it’s still EU since it was listed on NASDAQ. Being a remote company, they don’t list a headquarters. I don’t know where their servers are based.
Yeah it’s not hosted in the EU. From their privacy policy:

There are some smaller providers that also offer Git via Forgejo or Gitea like Disroot. That might be fit for private use, but I haven’t personally tried it. Codeberg is great for more public facing FOSS projects but given their size I’d throw them a donation if you’re going to depend on it beyond personal scale.
That said, I just selfhost Forgejo using Coolify on a VPS in my home country. My goal is to migrate at some point to self hosting in my home, eventually.

Forgejo was really easy to set up with docker
It’s easy without docker too. It’s a single static binary.
I didn’t try 🤷 prefer not to run bare metal but good to know!
I think GitLab is american, anyway, Forgejo it’s the best IMO and is also european
