Put it differently: I do a lot of merges of updates from random people
to the repository, and I'd probably be doing none of it if I couldn't do
the code review, CI checks, etc. cleanly and easily inside of Github.
Modern development tools make a lot of stuff ever so much easier.
Perhaps it took a while from the repository transfer until people got
the hang of things so the increase wasn't synchronous, but I really
don't think anyone would sanely want to go back. It's much better now.
