I'm new here, so can't tell about the previous system. But about a month or two ago, it was 11/12 months (I meant after the last comment), I remember it clearly. It would have been good if it was 6 months at least.
Before Site migration (which happened on 24th April 2019) Topics were auto locked if there was no new post on the given topic in the last 3 months.
After we migrated to the new system we had not started Auto Lock for old Topics as we wanted to give some time for users to get adjusted to the new site and we also fix bugs and issues as they were getting reported. And during this time we didn't want users topics to get locked.
Now with things more stable we reinstated the feature. Although it has been set to 4months (120 days to be precise) instead of 3 months and we will eventually take it to 3 months.
I hope this answers your query.
