Opening PRs/MRs are typically how most of the git forges are used for contributions.

Having salsa and allowing to open MRs and then saying that you will accept a patch only if you file a bug report via BTS with proper tags is somewhat an anti-pattern.

Perhaps it's seen as an anti-pattern by people who regularly use those sorts of forges.

Sending patches to a mailing list is how the Linux kernel community takes contributions. If I spent most of my time on Linux kernel development I might think it somewhat of an anti-pattern that Debian has a mailing list but package maintainers regularly "ignore" patch series I E-mail to debian-devel.

One community's anti-pattern is another community's workflow.
