I did an inplace upgrade of gitea to forgejo. No issues.
I've been self hosting this for 2 or 3 years now.
There has been zero maintenance other than the occasional update button
I use it for my docker compose files that portainer pulls from with the click of the button to update my containers when needed.
I edit the files in VS code with the git plugin and it works without issue
I currently use immich with 40k+ files.
I think what OP meant by 'early development' is the updates with break Changes.
Ive been using immich in docker self hosted for 1.5 years.
I use authentik for user management and single sign on.
The breaking changes have only ever been minor changes I've had to make to my docker compose file, its always come back with no issues after the well described changes in the release notes and several of the changes I didn't even have to do because it did not apply to me.
This is petty standard stuff for anyone used to self hosting but if that sounds like its not for you then check out the roadmap. The stable version is expected next year sometime. Wait for that before giving it a try.
Personally I like the fast development, I find myself likely and using at least 1 new feature ever major update. I think this will easily become the best photo manager in 1 to 2 years and it will not longer be much of a competition
Btrfs only has issues with raid 5. Works well for raid 1 and 0. No reason to change if it works for you
Never done it myself but I think this example goes over the mounting
FWIW the file system it uses 'decomposedfs' can be read by other applications like rclone if needed.
Also ocis is working on a 'normal' file system with a few tradeoffs:
Also this channel has many new videos with freecad 1.0. Especially for woodworking
Freecad in a VM with a remote viewer like guacamole?

Huge milestone for this project
Not sure what you mean by expects oauth.
I've been testing it and it works very well so far in my tests with just a normal user name and password to login.
I've actually been meaning to work on getting oauth connected to my authentik but haven't gotten around to it yet
So far the server seems very solid and the clients for android and windows also seem very good.
I haven't tried them but some people have made templates for obsidian
