>Woodpecker is community-run, and Codeberg is a non-profit running the biggest Gitea instance.

This is not the answer, really.

For example if anyone asks why should you use Firefox you can at least say Mozilla is trying to support an independent (as in "they have their own engine\stack") software that complies with modern standarts without addint it's own bullshit.

Not just because they are non profit or because of some of their views or whatever.

While closed sourced sofware owned for a profit entity has it's risks - so does the community-run software. Different risks but still risks. Endless number of forks is one of them.
