I think Codeberg is totally open as opposed to GitLab which has an open core and paid enterprise version. There’s also SourceHut but you have to pay to use it (no free tier).
As far as I know there aren’t any public Forgejo instances.(Codeberg is Forgejo)I think any of these are better than GitHub (I say as I still use GitHub).
I might be mistaken, but I think Codeberg is the official public Forgejo instance.
How about Gitea?
Forgejo is a fork of Gitea. https://lwn.net/Articles/963095/
This is a good, short read. For those who are unfamiliar with the AGPL license that the author proposes we all start using, the main difference (and I am not a lawyer) is that under the AGPL, the source code including any modifications must also be made available to all users interacting with the software over a network. This prevents companies from making proprietary versions of AGPL software that are only accessible as a web service, which is one of the big ways that corporations are able to profit from GPL source code contributions these days.
