I also just canceled my Github subscription and moved all of my private repos to a self-hosted GitLab. I did this because I was very unhappy with the politics that GitHub recently decided it wanted to push.
The funny thing though, having my private repos on my own server just FEELS nice. I have total control over my projects. I wasn't worried about anyone "snooping" on them but there's a subtle psychological change when you know your code is on your sever and no one other than you has admin access.
I moved for political reasons, but found the intangible benefits of being the "master of my domain" were a great unintended side-effect.
