Is there something like GitHub, but without big tech involvement, no data collection, no ads, open source, and preferably decentralized (maybe Fediverse or even P2P)? (lemmy.world)

No, because the people hiring and the people working with you will be using GitHub.

Speak for yourself. Being choosy with clients and jobs is a good chunk of the reason I work for myself, when I could instead be making/tweaking/re-designing the carbon-fiber exteriors for predator drones for about 3 times the income.

I loved everything I saw of that workshop, except the clients and the end product. I prefer to be able to sleep at night.

I'm seeing a growing trend where a dev's core repo moves to a new platform, but leaves a mirror on github with a link to the main repo. I love this solution.
