Isn’t this how protected branches and github review functionality works anyways? What does this module add?

Possibly it was not so 6 years ago when the repository was initially made? Of course considering that this is the Gitea fork, their goal might not be the use for Github.
Yes, and it has a number of other features, but it's behind a paywall. So perhaps this is for those that want some of those features but don't want to pay.
The README says it uses GitHub protected branches, so I'm not sure if it does get around the paywall. That would be great though!
