I think it's kinda cool that different contributors can express their different creative/organizational (or disorganizational) styles, yet still be able to contribute bug fixes (and bugs themselves) on absolute strangers random projects. For me, it feels much more relaxed. I even made a pull request on a major project recently (sympy). In the past, I'd probably have felt very intimidated to do something like this. But the lax attitude on github made it very easy for me, socially, to reach out with my code. That said, if I were to make a new github-like platform, the number one thing I'd probably do to decrease fragmentation is make automated testing as friendly as possible. In the same way that github made git itself friendly, tests need to be friendly.
