Removing by sale / usage rate might be fair.
No one opened your app in 2 years? It gets the boot.

I have apps on my Android phone that haven't been updated in years. They work just fine.
Heck on my MacBook I use an app that wad last updated in 2016 or so, and I consider it a vital pri0 part of my daily workflow!
