The exodus from GitHub has begun.
People are complaining: "Again, a platform that we used to build our reputation and discover new stuff and make high-stakes decisions has rugpulled us..."
But the people are looking for the next GitHub not realizing what it truly was:
- Hosting
- Team Collaboration
- Community - broader exploration and interactions beyond the team
The next "GitHub" should be separate services / apps / projects and sharing identities and important metadata formats.
Nostr has the most clean-cut separation and the best design long-term I believe.
But it makes all of these aspects their own marketplaces (and even more like CI) and those take a lot of time and effort to bootstrap.
Will #gitvianostr succeed?
I am not sure but in times like this we have a chance to take a step forward.

the social aspect of github is a natural target for gitvianostr. I want to see what devs in my network are doing: new projects, commits, stars, gists...
CI is like a whole separate product
Does #gitnostr already excist as a a site?
