If a license prohibits making money ("no commercial use"), then it is
not Free Software, and it is not Open Source.

True.  But it's a reason to associate with an non-profit charity with
free software as a purpose.   That's still not a guarantee, but such
organizations are obligated to act in the best interests of free
software, rather than their shareholders.

So I think that's

  https://savannah.nongnu.org/
  http://gna.org/

and perhaps ASF, but that is much heavier weight.

I can't recall any of the most used free software licenses which ban
making money out of free software.  Even the most virus like GPL
doesn't ban use of GPL'ed software in the commercial projects.

There is no guaranty that another platform will not start adding its ads
(if it didn't already).

I think, that is the new policy of sourceforge; to make money out of
free software.

One more reason to completely go to another platform.
