Remember: It's okay for your F/OSS project to be finished. You don't have shareholders who need you to grow every year. You don't have customers who need to be persuaded to buy a subscription or a new version every year by marketing-driven features. If it solves the problem that you created it to solve, you have won. You now have some software that solves the problem that you had. You are allowed to stop now.

100% agree…

But I do think some general guides are very considerate. “Here’s how to think about this thing, here are the big flows to startup; here’s something that never sat right with me…”

Because the void of bad documentation or cognitive tax is readily filled by ai (I’d argue that this has been a huge sales case to the tech.)
