Thanks. I should have mentioned that the request was for a non-self-hosted solution. I'll look into Codeberg.

Gitlab.com also hosts a free tier, though it says that it's for "individuals working on personal projects and open source contributions."

I like Codeberg. You might also look at sourcehut, too. It is a bit more... baroque? All its features are supposed to work without JS (it works well with Nyxt, for instance), and it is 100% free software.

While we're listing alternatives: I work on, and use, Radicle, which is distributed, is fully free and open source software. There's also Tangled, another take on distributed, but built on ATproto, which underlies Bluesky. (For personal reasons, I only care about distributed systems for this.)
