Total noob here when it comes to all things git, but can't you simply host git in a privately owned server? I thought I saw that when installing some packages on my Synology NAS.

Yes, but how are you gonna accept pull requests? You need a frontend and a frontend needs an account.

Of course, all of these alternative forges (gitea, forgejo, gitlab) can be self hosted on your own private server.
