Yesterday at a dinner with many well known friendly faces, a discussion started about the priorization of issues.

One of the main problems when deciding which issues to tackle is, that a developer perspective often differs from the one from the average user perspective.

So we thought it might be a good idea to start giving our users a bigger voice in how bugs are prioritized - and how the projects funds are spent - by giving the developers more information about the "impact footprint" of issue reports.

*In short: if you particularly hate an issue (or two or three) go to this issue on github and just give the first post of it a thumbs up**👍**.*

The following link will then show the leaderboard of annoying things

https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+sort%3Areactions-%2B1-desc+label%3ABug

While there is no guarantee that these bugs really will be solved first (there are a couple of other things also to take into account, like a well defined solution being at hand) this should give us a much better (democratic) idea of the often-cited user expectation.

Thanks for reading

Matthias
