Alternative github frontends? (sh.itjust.works)

Github has become more bloated, slower and more user-hostile with each update (just like all other big corp platforms). SPA navigation slow like hell, the "new" file viewer/browser is hardly usable in my opinion, code search does not work without login, etc. So are there any good alternative FE where the following work (read only mode is enough):

  • Basic git stuff like commits, branches, tags, etc
  • File browser
  • Code search
  • Issues
  • Pull requests
  • Conversations
  • Wiki

For file browsing and searching I know the github1s.

Github isn't slow on my devices.

Which os? There are plenty of third party apps for computer or mobile

Ofc Firefox (on any OS). It might work better with a chromium based browser but I don't use any of them.
