Only tangentially related, but I'm always fascinated that mailing lists are still a thing in 2025.

Please, inform us of an alternative which is:

• Non-proprietary

• Federated

• Archivable

• Accessible

• Not dependent on a specific company

GIT promised to be "Non-proprietary, Decentralized" but still does not have a built-in issue tracker :-)

Shouldn't the git native issue tracker be as simple as adding file pr/the_problem_i_am_having

Issues shouldn't really live in the same source tree, IMO. But AFAIK there are forges that keep the issues in the same repository, just not in the same tree of commits that the source tree has, git notes style.

Any user without commit permission should be able to create tickets and comment on them.

What's wrong with debbugs? :)
