Both GitLab and BitBucket are commonly suggested.
Neither seems great, but when push comes to shove "they'll do". :)
For people that are ok with standing up their own servers, there are more
options. Gitea (Open Source GitHub clone) is pretty good:

It's also very efficient resource wise (unlike GitLab), so can run effectively
on tiny hardware. Even Raspberry Pi level can do a decent job for small scale
stuff.
Naturally, anyone with team-sized needs would run it on appropriate hardware. ;)
