I've been a happy vimari user for years and wanted to report a bug - but then I saw that the last commit was 3 years ago (April 2021).

Does anyone maintain a fork? If not, would anyone be interested in setting one up? It's amazing that vimari still pretty much works without any changes despite no update in 3 years - given this is a web based tool (and the web technologies change fast).

Pinging the most active contributors to offer them a chance to offer their thoughts (thanks for all your work here, it's of course totally ok to stop maintaining something). In particular, I'd be curious whether there were any technical reasons why you stopped development - or you just had other priorities? It still works surprisingly well given the last commit was >3y ago! Well done!

More discussion at #290 but hope there are people in the community with the time and skillset to pick this up!

Thanks @osdiab, I missed that! I'll keep the issue open for now to make it easier to spot the other one.

For those who might be interested, I've recently made public an alternative project for Safari - https://github.com/dzirtusss/vifari

It is not a browser extension like Vimium or Vimari, but uses macos accessabiliti api. From user perspective it feels almost the same. Even more, as it is pure lua, it is much easier to do something with it w/o any need for Swift/XCode/Apple/etc.

P.S. As well thanks to all the creators and mainteiners of Vimari. It was great project, and big pity it is not supported anymore. Was using it for some time and it was very helpful. Thanks.
