These are open source developers we're talking about though, and it can be argued they continue to show a distinct preference for federated (email, IRC) and proactively distributed (git) systems. Anyway, it doesn't matter what either of us think, all that matters is whether it happens or not, and time will tell. I hope it does though.

"They" who? FOSS is quite a diverse community. If anything,i've seen a great deal of projects that used discord as their communication platform. Linux is practically the only project that i can name from the top of my head, that uses a decentralized communication platform. The most popular FOSS alternative to github is Codeberg (that's my impression, at least).
