As a GitHub replacement, I recommend Codeberg ! They’re managed by a nonprofit which you can easily join and participate in the voting. Push times are a tad longer than on GitHub, but still only take a few seconds.
I can’t speak for the CI aspect though, as I haven’t used any of GitHub’s automations. My projects are small enough that I can run the tests locally.
Football (soccer) pitches are also all different sizes, so it’s not even a consistent measurement unit ! (Which is also true of elephants)
