Hi Dave and others,
I understand that a cloud based solution is easier in maintenance and setup. Which is true on that side. Like Stefan said before, there are some legal issues connected with going to the cloud.
Moreover, you will have more freedom, control and more features available with the GitLab on-prem version then you have with the free cloud solution.
GitLab core is open-source available where as both GitHub and BitBucket are proprietary solutions. GitHub has only a paid enterprise version available. And BitBucket is a mess with their products, they have different teams working on the on-prem products (incl. Bamboo vs Pipeline). So the on-prem is not using BitBucket Pipelines, instead they have Bamboo, which is not well integrated into BitBucket.
Bottom-line: my preference would definitely be GitLab. According to the facts above.
You may want to check several sites like the feature list for self-managed instances: https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/self-managed/feature-comparison/
With the free version you can also create integration between other 3rd party applications if needed.
Regards, Melroy van den Berg

Would it be worth considering cloud based GitHub, BitBucket or GitLab? All have free accounts available
All of those have ideological and/or legal issues when it comes to X2Go and its core team members, so, no.
We will go the self-hosting route. Heinz-M. Graesing has already stepped up to cover the costs for the additional IP, I'm waiting to hear back from Juri regarding the LXC container.
