It's a good point. This post probably applies much more for libraries, where it's pretty easy to open a pull request with a code example causing the bug.
For batch-processing tools like Pandoc, uploading an example input file, output file, and description of what's wrong in the output would still be very useful.
I guess the nearest analogy for a graphical tool that you use as an end user, rather than a developer, would be recording a video of you triggering the bug :)

Yes, a cursory glance at the author's repositories shows he's talking about libraries for other developers and not consumer apps like LibreOffice/GIMP/VLC/etc used by non-programmers. https://github.com/ryanflorence?tab=repositories https://github.com/ryanflorence?tab=repositories
