GitHub New Issue template appears empty / current template is deprecated

With the new GitHub issue view,

this is what I get when creating a new issue:

Likely related to the fact that the current template is deprecated

(I made sure to disable Refined GitHub extension in case that was messing with it)

Thanks. I didn't know we had an issue template 😆

The new YAML-based format has one minor problem:

• Each issue template must have a body of "form items". These items define how the issue is rendered.
• Each form item must be of one of the following types: checkboxes, dropdown, input, markdown, textarea. All of these, except for markdown, require that a label attribute be defined. The value of this attribute is then used as a header.
• The body must contain at least one non-markdown block. This means, even for the simplest of issues, an extraneous header will be added.

On the positive side, the form looks quite nice:

By default (no user modifications), the new issue will be created with the following Markdown content:

### This is an input

_No response_

### These are a couple of checkboxes

- [ ] Option 1
- [ ] Option 2

### This is a dropdown menu

None

### This is a multiline textarea

Default value

I posted in the feedback discussion to understand if removing support for the legacy issue templates is intentional or not.

The old issue templates are being phased out. We either have to migrate or remove it. https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/148713#discussioncomment-11831926

We discussed this internally and decided to remove the template for now. The reported issues haven't decreased in quality since the template is gone. We can consider re-introducing it when there's a need. Sorry, @InSyncWithFoo, for the changing instructions. Are you interested in updating your PR accordingly?
