Recently worked at a mid-sized learning technology company. Feature flags were transformative for our product delivery to fully decouple deploys from releases, reduce risk, and offer tons of control over feature rollouts. Really can't imagine releasing without them.

In my new role, I'm curious what teams do with feature flags post-release. Do you have a good process for cleaning them up? Do they have long term usefulness as a failsafe or for customer/user configuration? Is it really an issue if they just stay in the code forever? Does this cause issues for you?
