@koteisaev @mcc that's literally not true lol, unless you consider active development and updates a prerequisite to "existing". even if a sole maintainer of open source software is hit by a bus the code is still out there in the public and usable. even if there's an attempt made to bury it due to some kind of corporate capture, if it's widely used software it likely exists on many people's computers and in various web archives, and if it's published under an open source license, there is absolutely nothing stopping people from re-uploading it.
