    Corporations can go out of business, have an incentive to enshittify, etc. Communities/non-profit foundations generally don’t.

    The only way a community project can cease to be “stable” (in the “not going away” sense you’re using it) is if literally nobody competent cares enough to maintain it anymore, and if that’s the case, was anything of value really lost?
