> The main thing I like about Github's PRs is that it's a system I'm already familiar with and have a login/account for. It's tedious going to contribute to a project to find I have to sign up for and learn another system.

codeberg supports logging in with GitHub accounts, and the PR interface is exactly the same

you have nothing new to learn!

Yeah and this slavish devotion to keeping the existing (broken imho) PR structure from GH is the one thing I most dislike about Forgejo, but oh well. I still moved my project over to Codeberg.

GH's PR system is semi-tolerable for open source projects. It's downright broken for commercial software teams of any scale.

Like the other commenter: I miss Gerrit and proper comment<->change tracking.

agreed, the github "innovation", i.e. the pull request interface is terrible for anything other than small changes

hopefully codeberg can build on it, and have an "advanced" option
