Interesting ideas.
One of the major requirements imho is the permanent availability of the
threads. This is what is really great about the mailing lists on OpenJDK:
there are often issues that refer to a mail thread, and even if that is 10
years old, we can still refer to it.
I don't know if that is the case with Github discussions too?
