 I'm not worried. this is how new things begin. perhaps projects will start off using nostr alongside github and as usage grows on the nostr side, fully transition to only accepting issues and PRs over nostr.

@hzrd149 's noStrudel is just one example of a repository on the journey. its got 99 open issues and 4 open PRs on github and 5 open issues and 0 open PRs on nostr.

Issues and PRs raised on nostr get interest and engagement from across nostr and not just users using git specific clients. So the value proposition is quite different than self-hosted gitlab / forgejo.

 Exactly. That's all I was really trying to say here. It takes time for things to catch on. Not seeing hype everywhere isn't necessarily a bad thing.

 That and some people don't want to be alpha or beta testers for everything. I don't. Kudos to those who do. I do on occasion, but bandwidth is limited.

 I think it is still early days.  Its as much down to where contributors choose to interact as much.
As the profile of #GitViaNostr grows I'm sure more contributors, and users with issues, will use it more. most nostr users don't even know about it yet. What's promising is that Issues and PRs are getting engagement from other nostr users, which don't really happen so much on walled garden self-hosted solutions.
