> I guess you're just not working on many things at a scale where version control is useful but setting up an online repo doesn't seem worth the time.

It is literally a couple of clicks to set up a private repo on github. For me, either the problem is too small to set up git, or it is big enough to spend half a minute to create a github repo.




Pro tip: you can set up a remote repo on any Unix machine with SSH access:

   ssh machine "mkdir x; git init x"
   git clone machine:x

If you have something sensetive or just want to avoid github/gitlab for some other reason, an empty remote container with SSH access works just as well.
