GitLab is open source and has no ads. It's relatively popular, you can learn more about it [here](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com)

Not all projects have the resources to self host GitLab CE. Actually compute resources may not be much, but keeping it up to date with security patches can be burdensome.

Dunno why you got downvoted. Some FOSS projects have zero server resources, and GitLab updates are... well... let's just say I had to turn off automatic updates for our instance at work because of how frequently they broke it, meaning I have to manually update it every few weeks.

gitlab.com has no ads either, and does not require hosting GitLab CE.

The parent comment explicitly said "open source", which only CE qualifies as.

But yeah GitLab.com is a great source available host/forge. I use it for my projects :).
