the mix of trac and Forgejo is already a mess if theres no _clean_
way to import the tickets
We would always have 15 years of ticket history outside our issue tracker

if you really want to have pull requests and issues have distinct positive 
numbers
well, make one even and the other odd above the value where they would clash
so it would be
0..20k Trac
20k-25k Forgejo
25k+ even Forgejo
25k+ odd redmine

redmine can accept OAuth2/OIDC logins via plugins IIUC
would need to be tested in a test setup but there seems support for shared
accounts in principle

1. It doesnt show the number of thumbs up / down in the search result
2. I cannot sort based on the thumbs up / down
3. on the labels it says "Use Alt + Click to exclude labels", this does not work
   alt-shift-click works, alt click doesnt, alt-enter works
   it may be that alt-click is interpreted by browser or by some other component
   but either way it doesnt work, the user will not care why it doesnt work, its
   bad UI
4. it does not search in the 15 years of tickets from trac

thx
