Eh, I personally find GitHub more useful for line-by-line nitpicking than for high-level, architectural reviews. GitHub PR diffs encourage reading code in an arbitrary top-to-bottom order and don't make it easy to jump around and get the bigger picture.

Unless you mean that they don't place any importance on the diff at all, which I might be inclined to believe, but that leaves a lot of the onus on accurate, well-written PR descriptions… which not every developer seems to be capable of.

I like to check out the code and review locally.. It would be awesome of VS Code had a code review extension that hooked into GitHub's API...
