We should not have to create a separate account on a separate site for discussion about a GitHub-hosted project.
GitHub Discussions for vLLM are no longer used; the project has moved community discussions to the vLLM Forum. This does require a separate account, as per the projectās maintainers, who state that the forum is intended to foster a more active and organized community than GitHub Discussions provided. For technical issues or feature requests, you can still use GitHub Issues, which does not require a separate account beyond GitHub itself.
Would you like more detail on the rationale for this change or alternative ways to engage with the vLLM community?

Hint: Mention @RunLLM in the post for followups.
100% agree.
Trying to claim āSeparation of concernsā is insanity.
Youāre optimizing before thereās a problem.
Youāre abstracting as ceremony not out of necessity.
There is a vastly superior solution: Github Discussions, where items can be natively linked and use the single log in point.
Forcing use of a separate forum is the webadmin equivalent to leftpad.
Bad choice is bad.
