well, it seems soucehut will have a web based work flow, or so it seems from this postmarketos post:

We talked to Drew DeVault (the main developer of SourceHut) and he told us that having the whole review process in the web UI available is one of the top priorities for SourceHut

...

SourceHut is prioritising to implement an entirely web-based flow for contributors.

This things don't happen in one day, so don't hold your breath yet, but it seems it's coming at some point...

Sure, and that would attract more people for certain. Current workflows are established and work really well, too.
