Pants

i still don't quite understand when to use github discussions vs issues, but i just made this proposal for a `pex3 cache` command into a discussion: <https://github.com/pantsbuild/pex/discussions/2200> after seeing pip's new `pip cache` subcommand recently. would love any comments on how people currently manage the size of the pex cache

moved it back to an issue because some things weren't working, lol <https://github.com/pantsbuild/pex/issues/2201>

I don't really know either. I prefer issues in all cases.

IIUC Pants started using discussions for ~stack overflow (mainly coming from users) and design discussions (mainly coming from existing contributors).

Yeah FWIW in pantsbuild/pants discussions are a substitute for slack conversations that get long and unwieldy, and that we want to conserve for long-term public consumption.
