A benefit of Github Issues is that users can also help each other.
For example, this happened recently:
User 1 kept having an issue, but no idea how to get debug infos.
User 2 had the issue once too and knows how to get debug infos, but can't reproduce the error.
By having both post in the same issue, the root cause and a matching solution were found before the maintainer even saw the issue :)
- maweki 9y agoThere are a few repositories where I know that I am one of the users with the most experience, so I watch them and as soon as issues arise I'll try to help debug and pinpoint the issue or even solve it. Since the Issue-tracker is public, we can have those benefits where we can take weight of the maintainer's shoulder. In another repo I just do releases to a specific distribution platform and my users basically do all the work.
