Default assignee for issues

Is there a way to set a default assignee for newly cerated issues? All new issues are set to Unassigned. This way no notifications about this issue are sent out unless people set their notification levels to watching. And notification settings can only be set for entire groups or projects you are explicitly set as member.

Adding to the answer of mattmilten and the comment of Sven Geggus, which allow to automatically assign an issue:

With Gitlab 14.8 there is now the option to create default issue templates

I have finally found a solution for this myself. It's possible to implement default assignees using templates and quick actions:

Simply put /assign @username into the templates. This way you can even define multiple default assignees for different kinds of issues.
