My biggest issue with GitHub is that it always squashes and merges.
You are aware you're talking about two different pieces of software?

Yeah, I am. However GitHub, being the biggest Git hosting provider and all that, makes you use merge commits. FF-merges must be done manually from the command line. While this definitely isn’t a problem for me, many people out there just don’t care and merge without a second thought (which, as I said in my comment, results in having to create a new branch and cherry picking the commits onto there).

You should check out the repo options on GitHub. It most definitely supports rebase merges, and you can disable other merge types if desired.
