Ive noticed its has been any activity in their github for a longtime. https://github.com/dylanaraps/neofetch

There are a few more info that could be added nowadays like Display Protocol (Wayland/X11) and Display size. FastFetch does this but Neofetch is globally recognized.

Fastfetch vs Neofetch

    On the flip side, some packages just do something incredibly simple like print some info about your machine along with an ASCII image, and there’s not really anything else to do once it’s feature complete.

      Neofetch would need maintenance, because it cannot deal with new WMs and DEs that came out after abandonment.

      Just use Fastfetc…

        I actually did switch to fastfetch yesterday, but is it not just reading a string somewhere? Why would a new WM/DE break a glorified println?

          That’s not how it works. Otherwise it would correctly identify Hyprland, Labwc etc, but it tends to just print Sway for all WLR based.
