Considering recent developments on sourceforge, it seems as good a
reason as any to leave.

Whether running a standalone system or a hosted service, I don't think
it makes sense to use one completely separate from code hosting.  If
you're using github for code, it makes sense to use github for issues;
if you were using Phabricator for code review and maintenance, then
using it for issues makes sense.
