alt Hacker News> I would first suggest looking into pi.dev
Looked into this one. Thought it was suspicious that it only had 7 open issues on github. Turns out they have a bot that auto-closes every single issue just because.
I honestly have no words.

The maintainer, Mario, sometimes declares the repo is on an “issue holiday” where issues are auto closed. This particular holiday is because there is a big refactor coming up. In non holiday periods issues can be reported as normal.
They have a pretty decent explanation.

The idea is for it to he extremely minimal which strikes me as a very opinionated stance, and not opinions I agree with.
It's a very interesting project. Many popular open source projects are inundated with poor quality issues and prs, hence the defences they are starting to erect.
Their process is outlined here: https://github.com/badlogic/pi-mono/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.m...
> Maintainers review auto-closed issues daily and reopen worthwhile ones. Issues that do not meet the quality bar below will not be reopened or receive a reply.
Seems like not an unreasonable way to deal with the problem of large numbers of low quality issues being submitted.
