    It is really easy to mirror git repos though, which makes this less of an issue than most other monopolies

      True, but filling bugs, making pull requests, reviewing them and links to between projects ports much worse between forges.

      To be fair, I think that is mostly a failure of git to take in these features to free them from the forges. Maybe radicle had a chance of fixing that, but…

        Fossil does, but it follows a very different FOSS deveopment style, The Cathedral Style (Git follows the Bazaar style)

          Yeah, and I think that nothing that is not git compatible has any chance

              Have I missed something? Does that mean I can use fossil to work on and contribute to git based projects seamlessly?

                  Sad, that is the feature that is really needed for an incremental transition. Without it, I do not see that adoption is actually plausible.
