It is a fork, but not old; they have ongoing commits: https://github.com/opensearch-project/OpenSearch/commits/mai...

Plus, given that AWS is currently hosting Open Search, they are not incentivized to sit on their laurels when it comes to modern features or stability

Went from ES and sharding hell to less of a sharding hell with OS on AWS. I've been looking for a replacement ever since first friday evening sharding party with infrastructure team.
