This.
Some PRs wait for months for a review. There are people who message on Discord, notify on the PR, even email asking for a review and telling them "we're doing the best we can" doesn't change the wait time
@sarahboyce and even that “best we can” carries some idea that it’s not (literally!) just how queues work when they’re overrun!
“It’s mathematically improbable that we’ll get to you any time soon” would be closer to the mark
@sarahboyce it’s also why as Fellow you have to not let it psyche you out.
