Nostr Web Client

Put your projects where your mouth is.

If you have replaced GitHub, take everything off of GitHub.

All of it.

Well that is the plan eventually for ngit and gitworkshop.dev but 1) there are ongoing conversations about the spec, 2) the products are not mature enough for production use with breaking changes coming and 3) the problem space that github covers is large.

We are looking at the high impact problems first. Sensorship resistant contribution to freedom orientated projects and mitigating the disruption a project ban would have by moving the collaboration off around PRs and Issues.

I havn't heard any talk yet about using ci tools via DVMs or alternative solutions for many other aspects of githubs offering.

Yes, this is the thing. I'm calling into question the idea that GitHub has already been replaced with any Nostr-based MVP, in particular gitstr.

That is a prototype that can be used and tested, to refine the concept. It is not a finished product replacing GitHub's added value and it is not much further along than anyone else's prototype.

We've been following the other projects, as well, sir, by the way. We were reading your NIP before it was cool to read your NIP. 😉

Yours is probably the one furthest along, really.

Yes, clearly a ridiculous notion at this point. Do sense that some people have that idea?

Unfortunately, that is how one project is being aggressively marketed.

I can see how you could or interpret it that way. I like to think that nostr devs like to have fun and get excited about things. We sometimes get hyperbolic.

Some small projects, don't really use much of github. So i guess its somewhat true for them.

I suspect some of the people building GitHub replacements don't really use most of the GitHub features. Which is not a problem for me, but his response was jarring.

GitHub is an enterprise-level application. It's not merely Twitter for sourcecode.
