What you give up vs Linear
- No built-in CI/CD pipeline; relies on webhooks to external systems
- Code review and pull-request functionality is basic compared to GitHub or Gitea
- Plugin/extension ecosystem is very limited
- Development pace is slower than Gitea; some features lag behind by years
What you gain
- • Full data ownership — self-host Gogs on your own infrastructure.
- • No per-seat SaaS bill (Linear: per-user pricing and cloud-only data).
- • Open-source code you can audit and extend (MIT).
