After the recent layoffs at Google that impacted open source maintainers of some prominent projects, I was curious to see what's the state of other projects where the community had to step up involvement after the initial project ceased their Open Source contributions.

I saw a few people made similar comparisons for other forked projects in the past, and as an infra guy myself, I immediately thought about OpenTofu, now that we're more than half a year after the fork from Terraform, they recently had a massive release, and also had some interesting shenanigans with Hashicorp's lawyers accusing them of stealing their precious IP.
