Gitlab is like the SAP of git, something for bloated big corporations. I've never seen a single FOSS repo there.

Yeah, who's ever heard of this weird company named nvidia <https://gitlab.com/nvidia>, or inkscape <https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape>, or F-Droid <https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroidclient>
In what world does nvidia fall under FOSS and not big corporation? That seems like an odd example to lead with.
FOSS and "big corporation" are not antonyms. Today, many of the largest FOSS contributors are big corporations.
The entire KDE ecosystem is on gitlab

I don't care much for gitlab either, but for example inkscape lives there

Didn't nobody ever tell you to "never say never" ?
Knot DNS[1] good enough for you ? GPL licensed.

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/ - Freedesktop which is the org for many projects such as Wayland uses gitlab
https://gitlab.gnome.org/ - GNOME uses Gitlab
https://gitlab.com/kicad/ - KiCad uses Gitlab
and https://salsa.debian.org/public - Debian uses Gitlab.
It seems somewhat popular for developers who want to avoid github. Gnome and KiCAD also use it.
