I honestly wouldn't use such a tool for anything mid to large size. Git is kind of a nightmare. Now, an SQL database, or a distributed key-value store, I would use as a backend.
Why startups don't try to break this charge per user per month thing? Would be great to have products which would charge like $10 a month for up to 5 users or so... why so greedy and charge 10 per user? So, if small team of 5..10 people, at $8 a month per user, is like $100 a month for single service. And if startup needs like 5..10 different services to pay, it becomes like a pretty good amount for paying for differ…
While bills do add up, you should only be paying for services if they're delivering more value then the price you're paying.
Can I self-host it? The only reason we're going to move away from JIRA is that Atlassian dropped server installs and is moving everyone to their cloud or datacenter products. Have a great conversion from JIRA and a reasonably-priced self-hosted option, we'll be looking at you in six months.
Its definitely something we've been exploring when putting our product roadmap together. I'm curious though, if we had a private cloud instance vs self hosted? I'd love to understand why self hosted would be the option you'd go for.

If you're actually employing 5 people then $100 is nothing for service which is central to your work. If it's 5 people not making money, then maybe you don't need a proprietary service.
This is the correct answer.
I like this, but my enterprise will not be switching away from Jira any time soon, which is my main problem with all these new fancy services. It just shows me what is possible, but I can never have.

Ironically enough, self-hosted Jira used to do this, until they got rid of the server licenses and forced everyone onto their cloud, and now they charge per user.

I don't believe they mean they're using git as the data store for the application. Sync with git means updating tickets based on parsing action commands embedded in commit messages pushed to your git server. Jira can actually do this, too, though I think you need to be using Bitbucket as your git server.

In our case it's due to regulations in place. For example, our data must stay on Canadian servers at all times.
