Is this project still maintained? (Answer: YES!)

This is such a great project, I can see nothing much happened in the last year.
Is development for this still happening? Should I switch to any of the forks?
Hi @ditorelo! Yep, this project is still very much alive! (And your second question piqued my curiosity—I just looked at all of the forks and none of them appear to be active at all.)
While I disagree slightly with your characterization that nothing much happened in the last year, I take your point—it's hard to see whether a project should be used or not if it doesn't have a ton of commits. Thanks for reaching out to ask.
The thing is, I don't get a lot of issues or PRs. Without these to tell me what features folks would like, I'm left developing primarily for myself, and at this point I'm happy enough with friends as-is that I don't feel a ton of pressure to add more features or improvements. I do occasionally make improvements but I'd do them 1000x faster if they were in response to requests from external users.
So the short answer is:
- This project is alive and well.
- Please use issues and PRs to let me know what improvements you'd like to see! I try to respond pretty quickly.
Enjoy! ❤️
Hi @JacobEvelyn!
I'm sorry, for whatever reason I looked somewhere and saw no there has been no activity since 2017. I was clearly mistaken!
I just started using the tools, and I'm loving it so I'll definitely come back with any questions, and I really appreciate your response!
I'll use it for a bit more and come back with suggestions / things. :)
Thanks so much for making this available to everyone!
No need to apologize, @ditorelo. Glad you're enjoying friends so far, and please let me know what you think as you use it more!
