For me as a simple user, the main obstacle of posting issues in redmine is, that I fear to produce a duplicate, cause I didn't even learn over the years how to efficiently track an issue down if it already exists.
No idea if github or any other solution is better, but redmine just sucks.

My 2 cents,
Bernd

Hi all,+1 too.My main concern is that I now fail to search efficiently for redmine issues, because there are so many now. And this leads to >duplicates, or even worst, no declaring the issue because the process is too long.Github issues are very well indexed by google, which doesn't seem to be the case for redmine. (but this probably can be improved - >not sure how)

Hi,

I think the biggest question: who does all the work to migrate from
Redmine to Github while not loosing all our history?


I started working on it some time ago and thought it looked quite
promising. I stopped the work because of lack of conviction that there's
a perspective for this.

And I don't think that Redmine is so bad usability wise. I agree, the
UI is not as sexy as Github, but it does its job well. It is much more
powerful for finding and filtering. The issues we had with the slow
performance was fixed when moving to a new Machine at Hetzner. The
main argument for github is in my opinion not ease of use - but the
integration with the code base - that is definitely a strength of
github issue reporting.

Agreed, it's better than before.
Because no more mantra, usable performance.
On the other hand I don't prefer it's search and filtering options.

To undermine that github is not easy to use for non-dev users: last
Wednesday at the Swiss QGIS user meeting I was in the meeting for
QWC2. Users had no idea at all how Github works and could be used for
issue reporting. One had to explain it to them and teach them how to
use it. To assume that using github is self-explanatory for non-tech
users is a wrong assumption.


I wouldn't claim that for either of the two platforms. There's a
learning curve for both. Myself, I happen to meanwhile embrace markdown
but struggle with the redmine syntax. Not because it's worse, just
because I am too lazy to learn another one.

Matthias
