recently I saw a project move PR discussions to discord, like what’s the point of using a git forge at this point, you can as well just use git send-email
Cool for communication, not cool when it is the only reference for decisions/planning/references/general doc

That’s what I would have thought. What exactly is a typical alternative approach, commercially? Open source projects might maintain a wiki or traditional website, and documentation files within the source itself.
For open source, GitHub has a crap load of stuff that you get for free, their features beyond code, issues & PRs is pretty cool. IIRC for when you get past free tiers, they have a program for open source where you can still be eligible for more of their otherwise paid offering
As for students, if it’s code, GitHub! Other than that, Trello maybe?
I think Microsoft still also hands out license for various tools or SaaS that one could use for that. Atlassian likely too for their jira/confluence. Or just some docs in a shared Google drive
… should be avoided. Try gitlab?
I usually use it in conjunction with a Google Doc or something else. I guess i wouldn’t be surprised people completely use it for everything which I agree is dumb
