No vote here but a little feedback. We've generally found Github Discussions somewhat lacking in Substrait. If other people find it good, great. I might be more inclined to just drive people to something like StackOverflow or the mailing list. We were initially quite enthusiastic but the experience didn't match the enthusiasm.
(A couple of us Substrait folks have started thinking that we should shift traffic from the GH discussions to mailing lists, fyi. I suppose grass is always greener.)
