  In the end, we opted for a simple strategy, sidestepping GitHub’s aggressive vendor lock-in: leave the existing issues open and unmigrated, but start counting issues at 30000 on Codeberg so that all issue numbers remain unambiguous. Let us please consider the GitHub issues that remain open as metaphorically “copy-on-write”.

  Do you know anything about the referenced vendor lock-in?

    Basically all the stuff that is build by GitHub and not part of git. Like the pull request discussion boards that is not stored in the git repository
