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)

Yes but it's the closest to decentralization, GitLab could implement it quicker with their money, but they chose not to because of the greed of their for profit parents

Wait what? If gitlab doesn't federate they will just die
