I really enjoy Gitlab's UI/UX, but I wish it were easy to manage a self-hosted Gitlab presence. The architecture diagrams[1] frankly read as supporting justification to go with the hosted solution.

It's fairly easy to host in my opinion.

Either you use the omnibus installer for a single server, or the helm chart for a distributed kubernetes install.

(gitlab employee here) what is it you find particularly painful? It's definitely not intended to make it seem like people should go with hosted, so any feedback you have would be really appreciated
