You're free to start delivering code and release of your own! Dansup is walking, most of everyone else is talking.

Dansup is walking

Looks more like he's juggling projects while riding a unicycle, and doing insult comedy at the same time. I think it's fair to question the sustainability of this, and if/when he'll publically self destruct.

Dansup is walking, most of everyone else is talking.

Isn't that because Dan hasn't open-sourced his project yet and doesn't let anybody else contribute?

Of course it is, but then again: it's because everyone else is talking. No one stops everyone else from starting their own project and overtaking his by sheer power of community. Until that happens, one man would have to suffice.

Wrong: https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/blob/dev/LICENSE

and doesn't let anybody else contribute?

Hmm, while there have been 158 contributors, a very small percent were from the other developers: https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/graphs/contributors

This information is pretty easy to look up.

From what I read he's the sole dev on three different large projects and ignoring issue requests.

well if you read it it ought to be true

I didn't remember which one it was. I'm not really a GitHub user. It said there were open issues for a long time.
