Hi team, I know that Kafka deletes offset for a consumer group after a period of time (configured by offsets.retention.minutes) if the consumer group is inactive for this amount of time. I want to understand the definition of "inactive". I came across this post[1] and it suggests that no offset committed for this amount of time is considered inactive. Does it mean that even I have a consumer group that connects to Kafka all the time but no offset is committed for that amount of time, the offset will still be deleted?
