How to choose the right applicationto make a suggestion/s:

Copy the github link and paste in your browser and see the list of updates made by the author.
So as you can see, for this application the latest commit made by the author was just 3 months ago. - What can you suggest for this application(as you use the application, you can easily spot some lacking features for a certain application). See here a sample of a suggestion.
