⚡️ BudaBit BIG Release! ⚡️
nostr:nprofile1qqsvmm558ja3n3g6hpr6vm2awaph825lv0fgwfrtkkdssfl6te3hgqqpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhszrnhwden5te0dehhxtnvdakz7j3tqh6 and I were putting a lot of effort into making #gitvianostr not just something to fall back on, but a daily driver for any community around Open Source Software.
It showcases the FULL power of Nostr: Communities, an ecosystem of content types, and of course Unstoppable Identites.
We are inviting you to [try BudaBit now](https://budabit.club) in beta!
Here's a demo of me creating a new repo on Github and then forking it to GitLab, while the metadata is posted on Nostr:

Social features aside (all thanks to nostr:nprofile1qqsf03c2gsmx5ef4c9zmxvlew04gdh7u94afnknp33qvv3c94kvwxgsppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qyvhwumn8ghj76rzwghxxmmjv93kcefwwdhkx6tpdshsc8fae9 ), repo creation and discovery, forking, issues, comments and file browsing should work relatively well.
You can also browse patches, and after some minor fixes, you will be able to merge and push any patch seamlessly. This is planned in the upcoming few days.
BudaBit is packed with a lot of features so feel free to explore yourself. I set the community relay (thanks to nostr:nprofile1qqs8eseg5zxak2hal8umuaa7laxgxjyll9uhyxp86c522shn9gj8crspz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7qgjwaehxw309ahx7um5wgerztnrdakj7qgkwaehxw309a3x2an09ehx7um5wgcjucm0d5hsvlnggv ) to "anyone can join" for now. Keep those issues coming! 😅
I also wrote a longform on why communities around open source software are better built on Nostr and about the philosophy and design principles of BudaBit:

I'll keep you guys posted about this. I feel like we are really onto something with, and I won't stop until people understand:
The future is open source, built on Nostr.
Warning: Don't put access tokens for your crucial repos in BudaBit, it is using a third-party CORS proxy to push stuff to your hosting providers.
Enjoy freedom tech, responsibly. 🤙

Impressive work! I do like how you can create and fork repos without touching a github / gitlab UI. I can't help but think you are pressing to far into the intergartion of centralised services with their custom APIs.
I do realise that you can only eat a pizza one slice at a time and we are still early with grasp https://ngit.dev/grasp
