GitHub, Bitbucket and GitLab require their users to run non-free
software, which already disqualifies them for the development of GNU
software.
There was recently a discussion (perhaps it is still in progress? I
don't know) about moving to SourceHut, but I don't think it's gone
anywhere. The problem seems to be that the present system exists and
works, while nobody has sat down and completed the work required to
migrate to a new one. Would you like to volunteer? :D
