Being a Gitorious enthusiast in the past, my mind has changed.
Gitorious is a centralized service as well – I can’t use my account
anywhere else nor do I know that they actually run the code they
purportedly do because I don’t control the server. Also, everyone is
saying »github could block you out or shut down any minute« (for a
similar reason why Linus developed git in the first place) – but so
can Gitorious. In fact, they have more downtime and more annoyances
than Github.

My experience of Gitorious is different from yours, but that doesn't invalidate it. What I would say is that as a matter of principle for a free culture organization, it is better to support free software. And
Gitorious is free software. You can run your own instance if needs be.
