The FreeBSD team conquered a massive 7,000 bug backlog 💪 Once overwhelmed by thousands of open issues, the team, with the help of data visualization tools, turned chaos into clarity.

Their approach involved setting up custom dashboards using GrimoireLab, which provided valuable insights into their Bugzilla system. They introduced new metrics like "unattended" and "abandoned" tickets to prioritize their efforts.
