What happened:

No commit has been checked into main for 8 months. There's plenty of open issues with little to no progress and many open PRs, some with trivial changes, others with bigger features. Many of them untouched for months

What you expected to happen:

There's three main scenarios, which one you choose (if any at all) is of course completely up to you. I'm just laying out the options I see.

  1. Someone should appoint one (or preferably multiple) new maintainers and hand dive over to them to ensure dive is revived.
  2. Make it official and archive the repository. If a well-maintained fork exists I please point to it as the de-facto successor in the README. In any case please add at least the info/warning/banner about the project being archived to the README.
  3. The current maintainer(s) could pick up the PRs and issues that exist and merge quality PRs or request changes where necessary. If you don't have time for implementing new features maybe reviewing PRs is still manageable

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):

Not applicable, I'd rather not reproduce this scenario in the futre

Anything else we need to know?:

dive is pretty good IMO, but it still lacks a little polish and some quality of life feature. I'd hate to see it go the way of the dodo as there's no alternative TUI with similar functionality

Thanks, I'm aware of that fork. There's little to no feature development going on there, mostly just dependency version bumps from what I gather. Better than nothing and definitely appreciated, but I wouldn't call that actively maintained

Yep, I need this like twice a month. Exporting the image to the fs works but it's just much more effort and diffing sux big time. Someone™ should sit down some time and provide a maintained fork ...
