would a self-hosted all-in-one solution be a viable alternative that doesn't split these all up into separate cloud hosted apps? it's been years since i've explored anything other than github/gitlab/etc.

maybe tangentially related but i've found cloudflare's email routing useful to just send emails to blah@customdomain.com sent to blah@myemail.com. i'm not sure if it's limited to domains registered with them though.
