Do stale issues get completely ignored? #4066

I see almost 800 isues have been labeld as stale and I was wondering whether this meant that these issues will not be answered at all. |

The only way to revive stale issues is to comment on it and leave something meaningful, like your interest in seeing the bug/feature be resolved/implemented, or your ideas. Good issues getting closed is unfortunate, but there is simply not enough time to work on them all, and it's not worth working on something that is needed by only a few users. |

That is understandable, I thought maybe the stale issues got reviewed every month or so. |

This app is mostly developed by me and since I earn almost no money with this I only have a single day each week usually, I can work on this. I can't possibly work on 800 issues or re-check them every now and then (and there are around 50-100 new issues and requests each week). I wouldn't have time for anything else. :) We also have to be aware of feature creep. Issues with a lot of upvotes definitely get my attention, so this is the best way to address this. |
