Cool idea to set the PR barrier-to-entry a little higher. You probably get higher quality PRs that way and reduce some noise.

More importantly it makes you think about your code in terms of logical, self contained, reviewable chunks. github makes you not care about commits. This ends up making it harder to scale contributors. You could not run linux on github. It would not scale. with git-contacts, you can cc everyone who has touched the chunk of code you’re touching based on git-blame. Lots of cool tools like this are unknown to github users. Also just having threaded review is huge, github doesn’t even have that.

it's absolutely mindblowing that github doesn't have threaded replies in 2023

@jb55, if someone starts working on one of those issues/features, should they also interact with the issue in GitHub itself? (e.g post a comment to indicate they are working on it, that they sent a PR, or something?) Thank you in advance!

New Damus/nostr user here. I followed a few people and now they are gone. Is there an issue for this? Couldn’t find one. I’m interested in contributing!
