This is a result of the popularity of Github. Low barriers are good, but as a result of this you're getting also inexperienced/low-effort people alongside the rest. And they're the majority. Github is so popular that it has become almost a one-stop shop for some users, while explicitly _not_ catering to non-technical users at all.

One thing that worked pretty well for me was to move to Gitlab. Very few people currently bother to create an account on another website to report an issue, and as a result the quality of feedback and reporting has always been very high. Gitlab has also less gamification, which helps in keeping project popularity from skyrocketing just due to stars and network effects instead of actual project merits.

I initially moved a single project when GH was acquired by Microsoft. GH/GL are totally equivalent for me, but due to this I ended up moving all my public projects and never looked back.
