Thank you for your answer, it's important to keep in mind that even though we read all day long about fancy new techniques and tools, most of us are working on legacy codebases and deploying manually.
That said, Continuous Deployment is not just a fad. I recently changed jobs and moved from gitlab CI/CD (which is really nice) to a mix of "git pull" on the server, SFTP, rsync, and running the migrations manually... And it's a huge pain and a huge waste of time (not to mention that if something goes wrong we don't have an easy way to rollback to the previous version).
I haven't yet setup CI/CD pipelines because we use on premise Bitbucket and it doesn't seem to offer CI/CD (so it means we'll need to install Jenkins or something and I'll have to learn that), but it's pretty high on my todo list.

I used to be on BitBucket too, but i definitely changed to GitLab and I find no reason to use something different, i recommend you to take a try. I don't use self-hosted but i guess you will have same options.

It does, it’s called pipelines I think. It’s pretty descent.
As far as I can tell pipelined is only available on bitbucket cloud, and not the self hosted version (bitbucket server) ? I'd love to be wrong though.
Ah ok, I don't know more about that.
