I switched to jj about a month ago and love it.

Broadly speaking, commits in git represent two conflicting ideas – a mechanical representation of the state of the codebase, and a logical series of changes for bisecting and human readability. It's possible to manage this in git, but painful.

In jj, these two concepts are separated – you have Revisions which represent the mechanical state, and are saved every time you run any command, even `jj status`. And you have Changes, which represent the human readable stuff, and can be edited at any time. This makes it really easy to save lots of snapshots, while carefully crafting your Changes for a readable history.

I was surprised at how easy it was to adapt to jj. It didn't feel like I had to learn a lot of stuff or a big new mental model, it turns out to just be pretty simple to craft the Changes at any point I please.
