Note that if the GNU project moves to using its instance of sourcehut,
then we will also benefit from such a web-based front-end.

Agreed again.
Another parameter I put in the equation: what do we want?
If our priority were to redirect reports made on r/org-mode and SO to
the Org maintainers, then switching to GitHub would probably be a good
move: users that feel comfortable sharing reports and ideas on these
platforms would create more issues on GitHub than emails we currently
receive on the list.
I believe our priority should be to motivate more Elisp hackers to
become Org maintainers. I expect potential candidates to be okay with
the GNU recommendation of trying to avoid GitHub for ethical reasons
and to be fine with working by email, the old way. Especially if we
have maintainers for small files: they certainly don't want to follow
everything in Org's development but agree to be cc'ed occasionally.
