GitHub and GitLab are places where projects like yours go to die a quiet death.
...as long as nobody shows interest in them. They are indexed by search engines and can be found by those looking for what can be considered a match.
They're used by programming nerds, but for electronic engineering I don't see any acceptance. They're just too user-unfriendly, cumbersome and geeky.
Sorry.
This is partially true. Git was most definitely created by extraterrestrial aliens, so to use it one has to have a suitable mindset and the desire to learn it without abandoning the learning.
On the other hand, that alien creature can be dressed as a normal human to make it look familiar and relatively easy to interact with. That's what hosted repo services like github do, and there's also GUI frontends to git which some people find convenient (I would not recommend touching them though -- if you use git, then use the proper command line tool).
Git, being a distributed VCS, is the right tool for the job, which is sharing stuff for others to download and collaborate if they want.
But you're right that chances are that the project will sit there and be rarely seen by anyone. However, my opinion is that if at least one person comes there from a search engine and finds it useful, then it's justified.
