At https://sfconservancy.org/GiveUpGitHub/ they also mention CodeBerg, which is hosted in the EU. https://codeberg.org/

It's git-only. FWIW, I chose SourceHut in part because they support git and Mercurial, and I'm a Mercurial user. [1]

FWIW, the main SourceHut developer last year moved to the Netherlands. https://drewdevault.com/2022/03/24/Netherlands-update.html , and commented "I will be re-locating SourceHut, the incorporated entity, to the Netherlands, and gradually moving our infrastructure over the pond."

[1] Also because SourceHut is whole-heartedly pro-free software, and also because I feel better being able to pay for a service than depend on the largess of a large company, and also because I don't like monocultures.

Sourcehut is entirely self-hostable and Drew Devault is staunchly pro-FOSS. Nationality means little in this case.
