No project legitimately gets that many stars while having so few issues open

[–] Avicenna@programming.dev 1 points 3 days ago

It is true when the repo is of consequence. Repos with ~20K stars generally have ~1000 open issues. But I assume even if not bots, people starring this could be trigger happy from AI coding and star everything that is related to vibe coding.
