GitHub Discussions
See original GitHub issueI was exploring about pytest, and accidentally found out that pytest uses GitHub Discussions feature.
Seems to be a New Thing™ as it still has a “Beta” marking in the GitHub documentation.
I see it as a good way to start discussing things without necessarily increasing the number of open issues.
What do you think? Should we try activating it? (I don’t have enough privilege to activate that feature; I see no option to enable it when I clicked on the Settings tab).

Looks like neither @pepoluan nor myself have access to turn it on:
So if someone with the power can go here: https://github.com/aio-libs/aiosmtpd/settings
Mark the “discussions” check and if necessary, click the setup button… That would be 👍🎉
Quite neat, actually! It enables several level of discussions … the main threads, then subthreads under a main thread.
Take a look at this thread, for example: https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/discussions/14607
You can see me responding to one particular post in that thread, while the main thread simply continues.
It’s like forums on steroids! 😄
