> I spoke about this before, but jj has the Blub Paradox problem

It's not relevant. Don't try to convert git users--you don't need to. They're fine doing what they do, and the git backend store is acceptable. People who understand how broken git is will gravitate to jj with the lightest of prodding--give them a light poke and then don't harass them further.

The main difference is that I can teach jj (like I could teach hg) to normal people. And, because jj is based on the git store, they can operate in a Github world.

So, just teach jj to people who haven't yet broken their brain with git. Running on the git backend already gains most of the network effect, so don't proselytize the git people.
