Over 110,000 questions unananswered as of 2017. Is this a matter of concern? [duplicate]

Question

SuperUser currently has 110,000 unanswered questions. This means the number of unanswered Qs has doubled over 5 years.

Should something be done about this issue? If so, what?

What has happened to the number of answered questions over the same period of time? — user477799, Commented Mar 13, 2017 at 14:29
The same arguments in the very question you linked to for the "doubling" reference still apply here. Why does the number increasing make any difference? — allquixotic, Commented Mar 13, 2017 at 14:31
There are currently 58,774 questions with no answers, so it is not as bad as it seems at first sight. The 110,000 is questions with no upvoted answers — DavidPostill, Commented Mar 13, 2017 at 23:21

I really only needed 2 letters to get my point across, but there's a character limit
