Comment on Anyone knows a good lightweight self-hosted alternative to GitHub?

This will allow you to browse & contribute to projects hosted on other instances without having an account there. Imagine using the GitHub search to find a project on Gitlab, then opening an issue there without ever even leaving GitHub. The protocol is called ForgeFed.
