Small point of order, jj is a VCS with a pluggable backend, one of which is git. That’s a bit different than a UI on top of the git protocol.

Yes - but only a bit! And personally I still like it as a reference point when I tell people about it - because in the end, it mainly affects what they see of the repo and how they interact with it, and the result is still a valid git repo (if they've colocated).
Isn't git the only supported backend?
I always introduce jj as a better git ui.
It's the only open source backend right now. Google's backend for their VCS infrastructure is still private.
They support Gerrit, Google's internal VCS.
Gerrit is not a VCS
