there's something about new VC fundedbro narcissism that's so fascinating
> GitHub? Where do we even begin…
The problem with GitHub is neither its UX nor its functions. Its downfall is VC funding but you made sure to only copy that and none of the good things.
> GitLab? Way too enterprise-y, and definitely not easy to self-host.
The only reason you don't offer an enterprise version yet is because atproto sucks and there's no way to make it private. Do you honestly think VCs are paying you to play with your strings and sheep? Your users won't pay for anything because there are already free alternatives that don't force them to join yet another cult. "Why should I join tangled? uhmmm it's like a worse version of everything but it has atproto! you like atproto don't you, 14 year old well established project will millions of users?"
> Sourcehut? So opinionated it alienates about 98% of potential contributors. Pretty great if you really love email, I guess.
Do you hear youself? In what world is tangled not extremely opinionated that alienates everyone but hardcore atproto followers? "pretty great if you really love atproto i guess".
> Forgejo/Gitea? Nice, sure. You can self-host—but without a shared identity, I still need to create an account on your instance just to send a PR.
It also works and is widely used and battle tested. Has a familiar UI and CI. Oh and apparently this newfound concept called private repos.
> Radicle? Honestly, it’s amazing. Purely technically, Radicle is far ahead of anything else, Tangled included. But the world—at present—just isn’t ready for full-on P2P.
The world is ready for appview + pds + did + ... yeah okay. Only hardcore atproto fans wants this bs.

While forcefully stated, these criticisms are on point, especially given the lack of answers by Tangled on monetisation.
