    @luis_in_brief a hobby project that went a bit too far :)

    I'm thinking of creating a git space for non technical writers, but haven't decided about details yet. Also, the financial model is unclear.

    @clackups the financial model on these is always an uncertain PITA. I do think something like git (or maybe jj!) for writers would be awesome (I'd love it for lawyers) but the transition costs and network effects are killer.

    @luis_in_brief Forgejo is great for developers, but it's difficult to customize to make it dead simple and oriented for writers.

    I'm not sure yet, probably I'll vibecode something plain and visually attractive. It needs also invitations and one-time codes for web tokens. I was hoping something like this exists in some form already :)

    @luis_in_brief it's still a lot of work, even if the clanker takes most of the coding. We will see :)

    Regarding using Git as a lawyer -- I don't see why not. It takes maybe a couple of hours of training.
