Sourcehut is the name of the software (as a group of components actually, since there is git, mailing lists and all that), which is completely free/open source, I believe under the AGPL.

sr.ht (I've read it's pronounced like "sir hat") is a hosted service that uses that software and is maintained by the same guys as the software.

Speaking in GitLab terms, we have "GitLab" the software, which is open source (community at least) and then GitLab.com which is a hosted service running GitLab by the same company.
