Honestly, just less waste. Wasted time, wasted hardware, etc. We spend so much time building devices that are meant to break, and be unfixable, and making software that fights the user instead of helping. All in the name of profits or something.
We could be making so many cool things, but instead we’re going back and forth not making any progress.
When I sort by All I see 90% of what I would be looking for on other sites, so it’s a drop in replacement (at least for now). I spend less time overall on lemmy, but the time I do spend is less mindless scrolling, and more actually interesting posts.
This could be what you’re looking for. Their main implementation is a gitea fork, but I’ve seen mentions of gitlab as well. Unfortunately I don’t think github would ever consider being compatible, that would just lose them users.
The prophecy has been fulfilled.

When I wake up while it’s still dark in the morning, I can hear the sound of trains in the distance. Specifically no horns or anything, just the sound of the engines / metal on tracks.
Bonus points because it was lightly raining today.
