I disagree with this and I guess most here. I think the screenshot that Drew displays is actually showing a stale bot that's misconfigured, maybe this is how GitHub's stale bot works by default, but I would say the crucial bit is that the stale bot should give issues a chance to be kept alive. After all, an issue that has people who care about it enough to comment isn't stale at all. Issues which are truly stale deserve to get a ping from the stale bot: "Is this issue still relevant? If I don't see anyone comment then I will close this issue in 7 days". Then after 7 days of inactivity the issue should be closed. Why do this? Because it enables prioritisation. Fixing every single issue is unrealistic and something that might have been a pain to someone in the past they may no longer care about.
