The interesting question may be: which projects die for which reason?
I'd pose that if the main reason is "our monetization scheme failed" and no one forks these projects and maintains them, then this is all a great spring cleaning.
Natural selection.
After all, if tomorrow git or curl or openssh or wireguard[1] dies, then it just means I'll have a choice to make:
fork and maintain
replace it
retire to a cave
or haproxy even though that's been a shitshow for years ↩
It's only killing your FOSS project if you let it die.
Don't you love how everything is always dying in the minds of writers that want your attention?
Yes.
