brunobrito commented on Ask HN: Why no one has ever build a better GitHub client?    · Posted by u/impsy_fr

Are you asking for a Github client in particular, or a git client? if the latter, there are several to choose from, some paid, some free (personally, I like lazygit, but I've used Tower (meh), Git Kraken (quite good, but heavy and not completely free), the built-ins in Jetbrains products, and, ofc the git cli.

If you're asking about the former - something to provide a new view on all the GitHub things like PR, then I don't know of one (though some of the GUI git clients have PR functionality built-in).

I used Refined Github for a while, but ended up stopping as most of the useful stuff (for me, at least) in there appears to be natively available on github.com.

Would love to know what you found disappointing in Tower!
