It's almost as if not getting paid for the work confers zero reasons to fix bugs that don't affect the package author(s) themselves? Weird how that seems to be the case, if only there was some way that people who made money off open source could help get issues fixed by, I don't know, offering something in return?
(React-Native's ecosystem isn't even remotely worse than average, you're just looking at it in absolute terms: the more popular a framework is, the more people will create tooling around it, and so the more stale projects you run into. If you rely on packages not going stale, and your company literally makes money thanks to them, be that directly or by helping you put out your name so you can make those dollars, have an open source budget, and use it)
