Git itself is extremely versatile and can be as useful as you are want it to be if you put in the time to learn it.
I love how much spare time you have to learn and maintain your infrastructure unnecessarily instead of working on the code. It’s like being a bus driver by day, and mechanic all night.

Depends how interested you are in the infrastructure I suppose. Obviously it’s not essential for any project. I see a few that have both self hosted resources and additionally a Github mirror.
An advantage to the “old school” approach is that you don’t end up tied into a large SAAS platform like Github.
