+1 from me, I think this is a good suggestion.
The big plus IMHO of GitHub is that everything is at one place: Code, issues, changes (in form of PRs). I think using GH-discussions is just consequent.
IIRC for Tycho GH-discussions replaced the user-mailing list but the developer mailing list stayed for large scale development discussions, project management or committer nominations.
This seems to be a good strategy for me, because developers that contribute to m2e needs an Eclipse Account (to sign the ECA) anyway. So they can easily subscribe to the m2e-dev mailing list.
However if a user wants to ask a question GitHub-discussions can be used and that user only needs a GH-account.
So I think this would be a good way for m2e as well.

Betreff: [m2e-dev] Using github discussions?
We are using github-discussions for a while now in tycho, maybe it is
time to do so as well for m2e?
I have the feeling we are getting some more user-feedback at tycho since
we enabled discussions and given that eclipse shutdown bugzilla people
might not want to register an eclipse account just to subscribe to a
mailinglist.
