• What's at stake. The freedom tech stack, Bitcoin Core down, coordinates
  through one company's platform. What that platform can do without asking.
• Who's been cut off. Takedowns, sanctions blocks, forges that closed or
  went bad (see the vetting list below).
• Why moving platform doesn't fix it. Another forge is another gatekeeper.
  Self-hosting fragments discovery and makes every contributor sign up again.
  Email patches work at Linux kernel scale but nobody new wants to learn them.
• Let git be git, let Nostr be Nostr. Git already handles the code. NIP-34
  puts the collaboration on Nostr: identity is a keypair, issues and pull
  requests are signed events, and where main points is a signed event
  replicated across relays. No accounts, no sign-up forms.
• GRASP: hosting without the gatekeeper. A git server and relay in one
  box that follows signed announcements. The project tells the host what's
  current, not the other way round. Use several hosts at once, hosted or
  self-hosted. If one vanishes, the project doesn't.
• Where it is today. ngit v3, GitWorkshop, and independent clients and
  servers all speaking the same protocol. Issues, pull requests, releases and
  CI as signed events.
• What you can do. How to clone, follow, zap and support projects that
  have moved, whether or not you write code.
