@Matt Corallo saw yall takin a look at decentralized git solutions and github replacement on bitcoin core discussion:
Here's a couple of sources and Nostr-based solutions you could give a try:
- NIP34 spec:
- GitHub-like client: 
- Discord/Slack type of client with Git-integration: https://budabit.club
- ... and some others, so there's quite some effort to make code collab work with Nostr
- The grasp spec is also interesting, it is a git server with nostr-native auth, designed to be easy-to-run and to accept code collab oriented nostr events, so a relay is packaged with it:
Grasp is the grug-brain solution to what radicle is trying to do for years but I think this has much better chance to work.
Why nostr?
Because it is more decentralized yet much simpler than Fediverse / Mastodon and Bluesky.
All above solutions lack full functionality compared to github but hopefully you can see where this is going.
It is trivial to moderate your relay, be it comments or any other events. Nostr-git is becoming increasingly standardized so your data is portable and signed.
Open to any questions!
