I’ve heard the main two suggestions are Codeberg and Gitlab. However, there has been some mixed feelings about GitLab I’ve seen across the internet in regards to them being as FOSS as Bitwarden is with their “Open-Core” model. With Codeberg though, there was a recent major security issue.
I would just be curious to get other people’s thoughts throughout the community, and then I can decide where I want to migrate my repos.

To be honest, I’m waiting until we finally get federated git hosting, specially if done with ActivityPub. I think it fits too well the use case.
I believe forgejo is getting there, but it’s still not possible.
I’m also waiting for this to move some 500 repositories from GitHub to a realistic federated alternative. I follow up from a distance but don’t see much movement on ForgeFed for ForgeJo. Did I miss something?
Any software potentially has security issues. The matter is how they deal with it.
Codeberg is pretty legit
If you don’t need the cicd stuff, Forjejo instances are really easy to spin up or use the ones online like codeberg.
sr.ht is pretty good if you don’t care about a web GUI
I use sourcehut, specifically because I like their web gui!
Thats great!
But I think we need to look at it from the perspective of somebody migrating from GitHub. If OP is used to the GitHub GUI and uses it extensively in their workflow, they will probably be very frustrated while trying to do the same on sr.ht .
That’s true, sr.ht it not a drop-in-replacement, but rather a full on alternative.
Hosted by someone else: Codeberg or Sourcehut.
Self-hosted: Forgejo
I host forgejo for myself.
Hmm… How do you find it? If you do not mind me asking.
I have it running on a raspberry pi at home behind a reverse proxy on my router and backed up to rsync.net. But hosting it on a cheap VPS might be easier.
I like Fossil-SCM, so https://chiselapp.com is good for that. But if you want to stick to Git, Forgejo is the best open-source offering (and Codeberg is the most prominent instance). If you want to tread far off of the beaten path, https://hub.darcs.net might meet your needs.
We’ll all benefit once the forgefed project is done, and Forgejo/Gitea/Gitlab can all interact with each other.
I will be original. Radicle: A decentralized alternative to GitHub built on Gossip
The builds are prepared for Linux and macOS. Additionally, the desktop client, web interface and console interface are being developed.
Ironic that the desktop client is hosted on GitHub lol
Do you know how access rights management work on radicle?
Last time I checked I could just add commits to any open PR…
Luckily, the main repo is different, having a canonical version.
I really like radicle though.
Codeberg or any forgejo self hosted git instances.
For self hosting?
