I feel that the author is drawing attention to Sourcehut because there are no alternatives that use the workflow he is pitching. It's not as great as Github at the moment, but he is trying to show what it can be. He always comes off as incapable of fixing sourcehut's flaws because a lot of suggestions he gets are contradictory to the fundamental design he has in mind. Despite this, sourcehut is making steady improvements. Drew also puts up invaluable resources which helps people like me get into the email workflow. Sourcehut currently has a steep learning curve, after which you would immediately recognize the design as a safer bet in the long term.
