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.
