This is my big problem with proprietary software; and why open source pragmatically makes more sense.

Fixing bugs is down to priority and incentives of the parent company.

I mean it is open source and someone even made a PR to fix the bug in question and I guess I could use their fork until it's fixed.
I was about to say, just fox the bug submit a pull request and use your fork until it’s merged. Isn’t that the point of all these fancy source control tools?
Hmm, doesn't seem as much of an issue now.
