Can I offer a bounty for bug fix?

[MartinJericho]

I submitted bug report Line chart rendering goes haywire #11775 over 6 months ago but it has no comments or activities on it at all

I thought reverting to v3.6.0 was not a problem until someone eventually gets around to looking at it, but I since discovered that that version also has a problem with line charts, although not as pronounced.

To display my line charts correctly I need to revert to v2.9.3, but that version contains vulnerabilities, so now I'd like to try and escalate a solution.

Is there an accepted way to escalate? Does offering a bounty lead to good outcomes? If so would I need to do that on some external site or is there a mechanism to do it here?

Thanks!
Martin

@MartinJericho in general we don't have a problem with someone offering a bounty to fix a bug. Unfortunately life has been busy for all of us maintainers and so we haven't been able to get through issues like the one you filed.
