Sourcehut's Second Year in Alpha

"and in 2020 alone it transacted 37,000 emails. There's obviously demand here."

Um, what?

Suppose you have 10 developers sending an average of 10 emails a day. That's 100 * 365, or 36 500 emails a year.

That stat doesn't sound very useful. 10 developers isn't demand.

Most projects on SourceHut don't receive anywhere near 10 patches per day. There are not any many large projects on sr.ht - established projects are slow to move off other platforms, and new projects haven't had a lot of time to gather steam. The top lists peak at like, 3 per day. What matters more is their volume: 1,447 of them were created in 2020.
