Imho the main argument for github is that it lowers the hurdle for new ane ad-hoc contributions like issues.
I’m problably too lazy to registsr a new account for your instance just to open a bug report.
In my opinion that sounds like a plus. People that are too lazy to register an account to put in a code merge request or report a bug aren’t going to be writing quality code or quality bug reports.
Working in a busy codebase for a long time when I have to spend time a non-trivial amount of time triaging through tickets I can’t reproduce that is taking time away from legitimate bug and request tickets I can be working on. It can seriously lead to burnout.

I’d love a federated git/issue/wiki thing
Are they moving issues or just code storage to GitHub?
Code storage. They’re keeping bugzilla.

It wouldn’t make it more difficult than with mercurial, which isn’t supported by github either.

Yes but knowing of a bug is better than not knowing of a bug

Speak for yourself, I’ve been prepared to submit detailed bug reports before the process in place to do so turned me off.
I did speak for myself. I said “In my opinion”.
They’re going to continue using Bugzilla for bug reports.
