I don't think the situation is any better or worse in that respect. There *is* 
a transitional problem that some maintainers haven't set up (or refuse to set 
up) their forge account.

And then it's vacation season in Europe.

I would hope that maintainers sort outstanding requests by last change rather 
than initial submission, so then just refreshing or commenting your request 
should bring it back near the top of the list (I suppose Forgejo supports that? 
At least Gitlab does).

With my CC hat on, ultimately, if you have really exhausted all options, you 
can appeal to the... TC.

But there was never a way to guarantee that patches got merged, even if they 
addressed all comments, if you're not a maintainer, and the forge won't change 
that per se.

The forge gives us an opportunity to define rules to merge code by default, 
*if* the GA wants to go in that direction. A timer bot similar to what VLC.git 
has could help here.
