Setting up yourself to use Gerrit is a PITA, and it really assumes you are a competent enough git user to start with, and even then it still is pain. Gerrit is a tool for developers to use to review patches, but it is definitely not a tool report bugs and issues with. Bug reporting is a key part of the FOSS development process, and of immense value even without code contributions, and there are common tools like bugzilla or trac to make it easy. IMO by not making use of these familiar tools the project is doing itself no favours.
