I've also heard of Tangled [0] which is decentralized and built on the AT Protocol like Bluesky but also has some genuinely useful features that GitHub has been dragging its heels over in implementing, like PR stacking, such that entire companies have sprung up to add that feature in GitHub.

Has anyone tried this?

Yes -- it's definitely alpha software, but usable for open source. There are interesting experiments like tack[1] to wire in custom CI. I imagine they'll be able to support private repos eventually once ATProto supports private data, but that may take some time.

I would love to use it, mostly for the jj compatibility and the nice CI implementation, but I need private repos so sadly this is not yet for me.

It's too decentralized for my taste IMO.

I like using radicle.xyz instead.
