git is decentralized for a reason. In the age of robots and cheap VPSs, if you really want a vanity web page / code forge to show your code, it is like an afternoon setting things up and the robot will do most of it for you. Yes, it has always been time to self-host your own code. I don't bother with a code forge, but I do have gitweb/gitolite running for a very light weight setup to push and display code
Codeberg runs on and develops Forgejo - a lightweight open source forge anyone can take and run themselves.
Heck, even less, just have to setup docker on the VPS, pull the Forgejo image and run it and it's basically all done, just have to personalize it and maybe setup some permissions if you want more users
