How can we reduce technical burdens to reporting bugs? (2024) (2024)

It should be possible to report a bug without making an account.

Instead, allow people to send an email instead.

It would be really nice if emails could be directed at issue trackers directly. This is something very few issue trackers seem to ever get right.

Yes, spam exists but marking a few obvious spam issues as such isn’t such a big deal. Maybe an intermediary step where a user can opt-in to having their email published as an issue?
