It makes sense to me that larger projects would use forums, just to make sure you don't pollute issues too heavily.

TBH when I do interact with projects on github I'm mostly interacting with smaller projects and maybe issues are 'good enough' there.

For the larger projects they tend to have better documentation or I can have questions answered on stack overflow, maybe that's why I haven't run into this yet.

I'm wondering if you would have success trying to target projects that are growing rapidly or are in a mid range of popularity. Ideally the product is also giving back to the github repo authors, maybe it's automatically creating an FAQ for them?

I hope some of this helps :)
