I am legitimately confused. Is this an issue with the community? Is one of the most popular TypeScript ORMs crap? Can anyone explain?

    If it was low quality I’m not sure it would have over 30k stars. It’s just a very active and popular project.

    Zephyr RTOS has a fuckton of open bugs too but it’s an unusually high quality project in the embedded space.

    Just the effect of more eyes.

      Yeah, context very much matters for numbers like this!

      Just thought that maybe one could get a better impression by calculating bug count / star count ratio. But not every active user that is happily using a project without issues will give a star. Still, this seems the best option there is to my knowledge.

      But it’d be nice at times to have more stats on GitHub. Something like a “total clones” number. Then again, that can also likely end up inflated for some projects.
