this strategy is ok as long as you explicitly indicate in the issue you might not get around to reviewing soon but to go ahead and fork.
I've seen too many folks who just leave PRs hanging which leads to frustration. People will remember and think twice about contributing to anything with your name/id in it.
- maweki 10y agoI have some PRs hanging around that are just translation fixes. How the heck can a maintainer not merge some translation fixes? For years... About every quarter I write something like "is there something wrong with this PR?" "can I do something else to get this merged". Usually without reaction.
- scaryclam 10y agoI'm actually quite bad for this. I think this year I might make it a new years resolution to retroactively apologise and add comments about forking, and try to make sure any future PRs get an answer one way or another.
