I don't care about centralisation / decentralisation in my work. What I care about is that I have the information I need to do my job.

PR descriptions can be part of your merge commit message so I don't know why you need to go to a web application if you don't want to. You can also read the full diff in git diff so I don't really see what you're upset about.

Since you don’t care about what I care about I have nothing to be upset about.

I care about getting things done. You seem to care about making git commits look pretty. I know what my customers prefer.
I thought I was ending this on an amicable note.

Yeah, that's why it's easy to sell centralisation to lots of people.
