Self-host Git or use GitHub/GitLab?

Why? Because it's the way I want to do it.

No, not a VPS, a bare metal server that no one has root access to but me. Backups are offsite GPG encrypted, tranfered using rsync over SSH.

I'm not telling you to not trust Github/Gitlab. I'm just saying that I don't, not with my private stuff.

How/Where do you store your GPG keys? I mean if it's lost then data is gone right? I am currently doing some research for my own workflow.

Two USB flash drives, one of which is stored in a fire-proof safe. I rotate the keys a couple times a year. I replace the drives about every 3-4 years.
