GitHub is going the wrong way, but there really is nothing workable for open-source projects except GitHub. I don’t want to register on all these random GitHub killers just to open an issue or PR in a random project I’ve interacted with.

For personal or team setups, any third-party service will work well.

Open source projects existed just fine before GitHub, and they will exist just fine if they choose to move off GitHub as well. It's not a big deal if people won't do drive by contributions any more.

Or if they have to do them by email or instant messenger. What's wrong with joining a Matrix channel to send a drive-by bug report?

You don't have to; all the GitHub killers support GitHub sign on
