Hi, Walter . I noticed on some other issues, they were closed due to "inactivity" even though they had a lot of votes and some comments. I didn't see any need for people to comment further, as the issue was covered, and the system used here doesn't make it super easy to find topics to vote on, so I'm not sure that "inactivity" is a reason to close requests. For instance, some of the issues that were closed I still very much would like, but there's no reason for me to comment on them to make them "active." The next steps given were to make a new feature request, but that means all the previous votes would be lost, which doesn't make sense. Would you all reconsider your system around closing when the issue is "inactive"? It also means that I can't comment directly on those closed issues to say "hey no this should still be active bc I would still like this and I'm still here using Paper daily." Thanks for your consideration!
