Meh, I've maintained open source projects before and these comments are trivially easy to ignore.

No, that's because the VLC GitHub repo is only a mirror and the main repo is on their own GitLab at https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc/
Slightly higher friction for reports from the unwashed masses might be a slight side benefit but not having multiple separate issue trackers already is it's own reason.
You have not maintained popular open source projects for consumers then. There is a reason why the VLC repo no longer has an Issues tab: https://github.com/videolan/vlc
PRs can’t be blocked and you can already see some junk there: https://github.com/videolan/vlc/pulls
