I think that's a little harsh. Imo the reason for difference in popularity/github-stars is just different user bases- an order of magnitude more people use LLM APIs (and can leverage Dspy) vs those who finetune an LLM.

Agree about the abstractions btw. I found Dspy very convoluted for what it does, couldn't make sense of Textgrad at all.
