> why don't you try dropping support

I hear that sort of happened w/ ReasonML. Apparently Jordan still maintains it (because he's a prolific OSS guy like that), but FB itself is not investing in it, and is instead doubling down on Flow.

Jest is another project that largely yielded governance to its community.

You gotta understand that the number one incentive for someone to interview at FB is compensation. OSS opportunities are often a minor perk, and many (most?) employees don't do high profile OSS at all.

Doubling down on flow? Has TS not won?
Not at Facebook. Yes elsewhere
