Thanks for starting this thread, Tomoko! Being fairly new to the community, I can recall some early teething issues and offer a newcomer's perspective.
Jira took a while to get familiar with. I had used GitHub issues before, for Elasticsearch and Opensearch. Having used Jira now, makes me like GitHub a whole lot more. I like the standard markdown support, and overall experience. GitHub labels (and their UX placement), are great for discovering new issues and narrowing down your search. (I suppose Jira can do that too, but haven't gotten there yet). I remember frequently finding myself getting signed out and forgetting my Jira password in my initial days. Not having to create another account for Jira, or sign into two different systems is a big plus.
