Yeah, GitHub is the #1 way for devs to communicate, and Nostr devs aren't an exception. You basically HAVE to at least mirror something on there, or you don't exist.
They have a real strangehold on almost all development teams, on the whole planet, because they control everyone's repos and interactions. The same way Office 365 is nearly impossible to get away from, in the corporate world. Owning both of them is why Microsoft is so gigantic.
We can't compete with that level of centralization, but we're determined to offer a complete, professional, FOSS, decentralized setup, that can eventually be installed on lots of people's home or work servers. This gitserver is the Mother Server, so to say, and where we'll be beta testing everything, and will be SEO and AIO, but it should eventually just become one of many because relays mean that will all be able to look -- and interact with -- the same things from different places. Since we're such an infrastructure-focused project team, we decided that this could be our first big contribution to the effort.
Nostr wants to make git distributed again, and we support that message.
Shouldn't be too hard. 😁 Here is the competition, Nostr:
