It's kind of hinted at when Gandalf comes back and asks "Is it secret? Is it safe?" Frodo has to go looking for the ring and clearly hasn't thought about it in a while.

trueeee but 17 years would certainly not have been my first guess if I was asked "after how long do you kinda stop caring about a small trinket your uncle gave you & don't actively remember where you put it"

Once you get to a certain age, coming across some object in your household that you recognise but haven't looked at for decades becomes pretty normal.

But what if it has this neat trick where you can avoid unwanted visitors without actually having to be rude

I have that, it's called "oh shit I was asleep when you knocked, sorry."

ye but i wouldn't have known about it since i never put it on with an intention to disappear. Only after being told the ring is "special and powerful and stuff" i'd try to use it to do something i can't normally, otherwise it's just a trinket. Well, a trinket i'd be oddly attached to, but it's a gift from my uncle so that attachment wouldn't be that weird, right?
