Hm, I hadn't actually checked it but also I just saw it on their github issues and some kind soul had even created a logo for bython although I think its definitely Ai generated but still, it has many people reacting and I think that the community is waiting to be revived lol. https://github.com/mathialo/bython/issues/72 Nothing stops us from forking it either too or bringing the original person if they are still interested too y'know!
