 ## Introduction
 
-git.adyxax.org is a [gitea](https://gitea.io/) instance. For about 10 years I used a gitolite installation but I finally went for a gui instead in order to host repositories for non tech people.
+git.adyxax.org is the server hosting my git repositories. It uses gitolite as backend (reachable over ssh) with cgit and nginx as the read only web frontend.
+
+From October 2020 to June 2022 I relied on a [gitea](https://gitea.io/) instance and for the decade before that i relied on a gitolite (without a web frontend). I initially switched to gitea in order to host repositories for non tech people, but I no longer have that need. Gitea is simple enough to host but it has way too many features and way too frequent (security) updates! I therefore chose to simplify things again. I went with cgit as a web frontend because I did not want to link to github in my blog articles. Github is only a mirror of some of my work and I do not want it to be more than that.
