Right.  Indeed, aside from Savannah and for those purposes, among
hosted services NotABug seems to be the one most in line with the
free software movement and ideology that I'm aware of.

sr.ht is another free software solution, with some of its components
under the AGPLv3 and some under the MIT license.  Though currently
public registration is closed for the hosted version on sr.ht, you
can reach out to its maintainer and ask for an account if you like to
help with development or testing.

Of course, if you're able to, another option would be self-hosting
one of these pieces of software on your own server.
