GitHub can be a suitable platform for purely technical or policy-oriented discussions, but this assumes that users are not blocked from the GitHub organization. For example, [RFC 175](https://github.com/NixOS/rfcs/pull/175) cannot progress because the authors and the nominated shepherd [are all banned](https://discourse.nixos.org/t/rfc-memorandum-on-equitable-moderation/44214).
