I do think git serves a lot of people's needs very well. I see a lot of people being quite happy with direct github alternatives. Self hosting may become more popular too, I hadn't heard too many self hosting stories until recently. If LFS is your pain (I cannot stand to use git lfs) I have to mention oxen, which is open source and self hostable, but also has a hosted option. It handles large files right out of the gate and doing so faster than everyone else is one of its core missions. Still using github for distribution though, lol, see https://github.com/Oxen-AI/Oxen. I am also curious about where jj will go, its philosophy is really interesing, and sounds promising.
