Have you heard of ... Git?

:-)

Edit: I was jesting, got interesting responses!

There is no command git issue create [hostname] [title] [description] and if there was such a command, it'd require authentication on the specific instance to prevent spam.

You still need to create an account on each Forgejo instance to report a bug there...

And even, if you commit code or make a pull request... Git might be decentralized (you can develop with your friend independently from each other and merge it), but try to commit code to a GitHub project, GitLab instance or Forgejo instance without having an account there to authenticate yourself... It won't work.

You mean git inherently requires you to identify yourself?

Huh, shock

git identification has nothing to do with authentication, as any sane person with git experience knows
