They have a bot which cleans up inactive stuff, marking it as stale, eventually closing issues stale with no activity. Anything worth keeping open is re-opened or a maintainer will tell the bot to un-mark it as stale.

It takes four months to close an issue with the bot. But before it closes, someone comments or removes the tag.

There are 195 issues marked stale going back two years.
