I'm moving away from github because of recent uncertainty about them stealing from private repos.
In the past I used it for backups and versioning plus managing PRs even for solo stuff. Now I've started using my VPS as the upstream server, and realized that even on a team project I can replace a lot of the core github functionality easily. The big advantage being there is an automatic extra backup (My computer is backed up anyway but the post probable failure mode is me screwing up git somehow so it's good to have a remote upstream)
