[hdkkssj222-arch]

Everyone, please stop creating template only (aka. empty/spammy) issue tickets.
Thank You !

probably bots or idiots. should probably remove link to issue tracker in the app.

^ This and the templates for the time being, it would be also nice if you clean the clutter by deleting those spammy tickets (should be possible in a bulk/at once), they take almost 2 pages here on GH web.

For real.

My point exactly - this one is most likely one of them and part of the problem.

It appears that Collaborators can have an elevated admin access and should be able to ban such and clear the clutter by deleting issues (I can't), please think about it @butzist ;).

Edit: Probably applicable only for Organizations or/and paying customers and not available on the free plan (due to corporate greed ofc.).

I usually block and report those users. We should maybe consider closing the Issues section here altogether and move it to a platform with less spam

IDK how effective the [Report content] option is nowadays, but when I did it over a year ago I think, GH acted pretty fast for such a huge organization and the spammer was deleted, along their ticket(s)/topic(s)/PR(s) within couple of hours/days. I don't do this anymore because of reasons and I don't know why aren't they being addressed/handled by GH when you do it.

You've already disabled the issues tab couple of weeks ago and enabled it/them back (or GH did ?), disabling them will be/is a bad decision, along with moving to another platform, of which I most probably won't be a part of, GH is one of/the most popular Git site, even tho it has lots of issues/problems. Besides, most android projects are hosted here and not on GL or wherever else (there are couple of other GH alternatives, not really much of a competition, as they are smaller and offer less features, except maybe GL).
I've already agreed/supported your idea in your first comment here for removing the Report a problem button from the app and I even suggested to get rid of the templates for now at least, as it seems like all the spamming started around the time those were created/implemented (IDK if it's a coincidence), also a bot/actions workflow can be created to automatically handle those based on certain patterns (like the subject title if not anything else) and I'm willing to periodically log-in and even delete those tickets if I could to clear the clutter, but unfortunately I don't have the [Delete] button, for now I can only close them, which is what I'm doing from time to time, when I can.
