alt Hacker News> people just don't take any time to learn git, then get on a soapbox about it.
That is true. However those same people that struggled for years with git are able to pick up jj and be very productive with no issue whatsoever, in a matter of days. So either:
1. jj is a lot more intuitive out of the box
2. or jj makes learning it fun, so more people do it
Whichever it may be, hopefully git can improve by learning from it and we all win. Don't you agree?
I think you should consider a third option:
3. After years of refusing to learn git and making excuses for their hate, the goobers finally buckle down and read the manual for a tool that coincidentally does stuff a little different from git. They leap at the opportunity to further blame git for their difficulties rather than themselves.
If there is a way git can be made to appease these people without making it horrible, then we should try to do it. But I still think these people would be better served by buckling down for a few hours to learn git as it was designed, because it is designed very well.
