Fine has convinced me to try to set up gerrit at some point, but I think it’s ugly visually 😅 are there options to make it “prettier”?

Yeah it would be a part of migrating off of GitHub which I’m past the limits of already... you can’t reliably clone my repo 🤣 you definitely can’t build in time on most platforms... it’s basically not usable.

GitLab isn't going to handle Chromium well. It doesn't perform well, and it's hard to maintain. It also has the GitHub workflow and similarly handles rebasing and review poorly.

Gerrit stores nearly everything as notes in the Git repository and you don't end up maintaining a massive Ruby on Rails application + database providing a whole social media site.

Well, already needs to move to something like Jenkins using instances on a cloud provider like AWS, GCP, OVH, etc. directly. So I'd imagine the first step will be setting up CI, and then hooking up Gerrit to Jenkins isn't that hard.

I’m actually not going to a cloud provider, I need predictable costs, so I’ll either selfhost or rent instances at fixed price.

ovhcloud.com/en-ca/public-c is what I was thinking of in particular. The costs are quite predictable as long as you aren't scaling things up horizontally in an arbitrary way.
Could go with persistent VPS / dedicated server if it's going to be churning away most of the time.
I've been thinking about starting to use OVH public cloud instances for some development / testing builds. I certainly wouldn't try to use AWS because the pricing is ridiculous and they charge for bandwidth.

A lot of the time I don't need more than my local workstation, but then sometimes I want to do a whole bunch of development builds and they really might as well be in parallel on separate instances. OVH pricing is really good and I think it could help me speed things up a lot.
