Saw D11693 and I thought these changes on top might make the README even better? Open for discussion. I like our bug reporting doc a lot so I don't mind funneling users through it and not mentioning the bug reporting link directly in the readme. This notably forces github users to read a bit before they report issues to us for the first time. That said, I think the community chat can be really helpful at no cost to us so why not upsell it? This could fail if people start asking for say epriestley directly and / or the overall chatter is time consuming, but seemed worth tossing out at least.

Elsewhere, I spell out IRC channel (#phabricator on FreeNode) because the link doesn't give users enough information to connect if the irc:// protocol does not work on their machine. In particular, they have to take some extra steps to figure out how to connect with a web client. But I don't know that this is really an issue.

enough information
(I mean, technically it has all the information, but if you don't really know what IRC is and you don't have a client installed you have less to go on when Googling or whatever.)
