IMO NixOS has the right stalebot settings[0]. It was discussed thouroughly in the RFC, as to choose the right information text and other actions by the bot. For example, the bot will only mark the issue/PR as stale and will never close the issue or lock it. Issues are only ever closed by humans.
The information text they came up with is quite a bit longer than the ansible one[1]. I think this is a very important point when adding such a bot, otherwise the user will be left helpless.

- iFreilicht 6y agoOh wow, that is very well worded! Not only do they explain why issues have to be marked as stale and how the reporter can remove the label. It's also friendly and appreciates that the user made the effort to create an issue in the first place and helps them do more to get attention to the issue.
