However, I’ve been hesitant to use Netlify CMS in any project because it appeared to be mostly abandoned for a long time now [1]. It remains to be seen whether “PM” will be able to revive the project as they are planning to [2]. An earlier fork [3] seems more promising to me at the moment.

I've always found the rush to the headless CMS to be a bit baffling, and strongly developer focused while forgetting most users. How are folks actually writing the content, are they just writing markdown by hand? I understand decoupling management of content from presentation, but the lack of options for editing was always confusing to me. Glad that now we'll have at least two good fully open source options.
