Avoid
Avoid: no human commits in a year, and most questions go unanswered.
Why
- No human commits since November 2024, and only 2 of 12 recent issues got a maintainer reply. (source 1, source 2, source 3, source 4)
- Maintainers took a median of 48 days to first respond to 12 recent issues. (source 1, source 2, source 3, source 4)
What would change this
- A release or merged commit from a maintainer, or replies to recent issues.
