I just thought about this problem and saw no solution for it in the communities
Looking at the size of the Atlassian company and Jira, it makes me wonder where their focus is at if not resolving such basic problems, which is "archive an issue", because backlogs can be a nightmare to manage if you want to have every problem of your project properly addressed in an issue
What could be done would be: create a "Delimiter Issue", which separates the bottom of your backlog (archived issues) and the top (non-archived ones), image detailing my idea below:
My solution is an ugly workaround, but I believe it would address properly my problems (and would depend on every manager follow this "behaviour"
Does it work? Yes. Is it ugly and heavily dependent on the people that use Jira? Also, yes. Am I unsatisfied with the solutions provided by Jira versus the price we pay for this tool? Definitely yes.
If you're using a Next-gen project, this is how I solved it:
You can click on the ellipses of the "Done" column and it will give the option to "Clear X Done Issues". By clearing them, it removes them visually from the board without deleting them. You can still find them by searching for "Done" issues in the Backlog.
In addition, if you're using a Roadmap with your project, you can filter your Roadmap so it hides the "Done issues".
