Being able to create issues and discuss merge requests on various source hosting sites without having to create an account on each would be a huge step forward! Especially since M$ has taken over Github and is well on its path to become the defacto centralized Git hoster.

If this isn't Github already, what is?

I don’t think anything is yet, because thankfully interop and decentralization are core design principles of git itself. But it does become more centralized the more parts of the workflow we move to these platforms, like project planning, reviews and build processes. We are not at the point where you can’t reasonably use anything but GH, but that’s definitely M$'s goal, and we’re getting closer imo.
