I can't even sign up on their website: there is "some error" - at multiple attempts - and they don't even show what kind of an error. UPDATE on August 30 2024:
Open-Source Abuse: Paid Self-Hosted Limitations

It's totally ridiculous for an issue board to not support markdown.

Raw product. For example, after the update it stopped installing altogether. Not suitable for work due to its unreliability and the presence of many bugs
