They haven't. They are just heads down on other work. It wouldn't make sense for them to abandon it - they have no alternative. What that message was about was supporting _community_ prs and development of gpui.

Focus ebbs and flows at Zed, they'll be back on it before long.

I remember when that came out, but I'm not sure I understand the concern. They use GPUI, so therefore they MUST keep it working and supportable, even if updating it isn't their current priority. Or are you saying they have a closed source fork now?

Actually, this story is literally them changing their renderer on linux, so they are maintaining it.

Isn't that every single open source project that is tied to a commercial entity?
