Bug#910541: diffoscope: filing bugs on diffoscope is cumbersome for non-Debian contributors

About issues: We can't change where the users create bug reports, only
suggest the correct place to do it. The extra work for BTS/salsa
issues (if enabled) for me is inevitable.

About the move from salsa.d.o, the question is: salsa.d.o can be used
for general projects born in debian or is most suited for debian
specific projects?

If salsa.d.o is suited, the next step should be enable the issues in
the repository and handle the work of manage duplicated issues between
the repository and the BTS,  while the users understand the correct
place to create issues.

If as Holger suggests, salsa.d.o is very much Debian centric then has
sense look for a new home for diffoscope and maybe other rb
repositories (eg website).
Personally i expect not.
