For me, the ease of self-hosting my own source-code hub tipped the balance in favor of Fossil SCM, after I abandoned Subversion. Ironically, the difficulty of self-hosting Git was the raison d'être for why inherently centralized services such as Github/Gitlab/etc were created in the first place, despite all the nice talk about distributed systems. There is no a priori reason why hosting a source code repo should be any different from hosting any random blog page. And Fossil is the proof that it can work.
