I fully agree here! I only now managed to contribute my first patch to Qt because setting up gerrit really scared me. I would have moved on to another project if I hadn't been using+developing KDE for a few years. After having used it now I think gerrit is a great tool but the barrier of entry is just too high. Unless that somehow gets fixed I am strongly in favour of the Phabricator proposal. Alex
