I do wish we had an open standard for things like issues, pull requests, etc. that was a little more "featureful" than plain email. At least platforms like Gitlab, Gitea, etc. are self-hostable and open source, which is a start.

ForgeFed[1] seems to be an attempt in that direction built on top of ActivityPub[2], but (from my very brief impression) seems to be stuck in something of a development hell. I’m willing to believe it’ll get done at some point, but whether it’ll get traction—or how a project of this sort should even go about that in general—is anybody’s guess.
