What is GitHub Discussions?

GitHub Discussions is a forum-style feature for conversations that don't fit the structure of an issue, such as general questions, ideas, or announcements. Unlike issues, discussions aren't meant to track specific tasks and can be organized into categories like Q&A or ideas. Maintainers often enable discussions to separate open-ended community conversation from actionable bug reports.
