For years I've been using DejaVu fonts, but in the last years I had the feeling that this project had been abandoned. And indeed it has.

Does anyone know of good open-source alternatives?

I've heard of GNU Unifont, which seems still alive, but it isn't the kind of font one would use for, say, slides or websites.

Liberation and Kurinto were interesting (though not au par with DejaVu, in my opinion), but seem to have been abandoned as well.

I'm tired of Google and personally am not interested in fonts commissioned by them.

Wow the IBM Plex family looks really amazing. How come I've never heard of it?

It's one of my favorites! Fira is also nice, and I use Fira Code for coding
