@vkc people like to mock me for using svn but my locally hosted svn repository always works great

@vkc Since no one else on this thread is representing this viewpoint: I want to remind people that unless you're putting unreasonable amounts of time, money, and energy into redundancy, self-hosted services have lower uptime than centralized ones. (At least, responsibly-run ones like GitHub.)

Sure, you maintain control. (Which IS valuable!)

But there's a cost in time and headaches.

@vkc I'm betting in the past you've had issues (e.g. hardware failure) that you had to troubleshoot before you could access your own service. I certainly have.

For centralized services, such issues are *their* problem to solve. If you're self-hosting, it's *your* problem to solve.

@vkc Broad data is not available because people who self-host are not required to report uptime. And "unreasonable" is subjective, of course.
