Maybe I am just too dumb but I always found pull requests hard for making small commits. Somehow PRs always ended up being on the bigger end. We even tried these stacked PRs but it was quite confusing.

In the end we moved to Gerrit and never looked back. We are not super experienced yet but I'd say our commit quality went up by quite a bit.

This is a good introduction to the differences of stacked diffs vs PRs: https://jg.gg/2018/09/29/stacked-diffs-versus-pull-requests/

Working with both gerrit and github for a couple of years and operating a CI service for both I have to say that Gerrit is far ahead of GitHub. However I stick to github for my own projects since I don't want to spend time hosting my own gerrit.
