This is a cool idea but surely you can use the (I think its) octo API to send the issues automatically instead of making me open github?

Thanks! Using the Octokit API would require users to authenticate, which adds extra friction. Redirecting them to a pre-filled GitHub issue feels more transparent and secure. They can see exactly what they’re about to submit, and they don’t have to sign in to any third-party app or website. Just one simple click to say hello.
