That said I also wish they had a degoogled version.
Another great one: The Confidence Game by Maria Konnikova.
I'm also fascinated by the build for Ada & Zangemann, a FOSS illustrated full-color children's book. It looks rather complex, but it handles translations, beautiful typesetting, and was remarkably fast when I tried running the build locally.
But https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Money_Electric%3A_The_Bitcoin_... is a bit more compelling. Satoshi is Adam Back and Peter Todd.

Many other tools/platforms provide decent source control and issue tracking. Nothing else has the FOSS project market share of github, and this matters especially when you're looking for the canonical home of a project and trying to judge how popular/active/viable it is (stars/commits/issues/PRs).
If you want exposure and participation for your FOSS project, it's harder to not use github.
FWIW, Forgejo does the source control stuff well. I love it for self-hosted local mirrors.
