Description

The issue templates used in this repository are very long and a confusing mix of comments, headings, and bolded text. In addition, they request information that can be confusing or irrelevant to the issue being reported. For example, in the bug template, the "What versions of software are you using?" contains the following to be filled out (highlighting intentionaly disabled as that's what the editor shows currently):

## What versions of software are you using?

### Go project

**Operating System and version:**

**Go Pkg Version:**

### Node.js project

<!--
    Please paste the text output of the console in the error output section with a screenshot
-->

**Operating System and version:** 

**Node.js version:**

**Yarn version:**

**Project.json:**

### Web browser

<!--
    Please paste the text output of the console in the error output section with a screenshot
-->

**Operating System and version:**

**Browser name and version:**

It's not clear how to fill this out, or why it's requesting logs in a section listing versions.

In total, this makes filing issues (and reading issues) in this repository rather difficult. If the level of detail above is actually required, we should use an issue form to prompt for required information in an easy to understand way.
