I think only having a single developer has had mixed effects on the project, which is a shame because it's so close to being great.
Meanwhile BS4 has solid built in components that are just documented enough to be usable despite not having as many. Issues get fixed quickly and it feels easier to follow its conventions. The JS APIs are simple enough as well, and the code behind it is much easier to follow than in Semantic UI.
I created an app for a customer in it, and while it looks shiny, it would have been more cost-effective to just have used bootstrap.
It seems like a good start for prototyping and admin interfaces, but for anything else it just adds too much styling and classes that need to be overridden.
The name seems poorly choosen, since you're constantly adding classes that reference styling decisions making it everything but semantic (ui very wide, ui very thin, ui three column doubling grid, …).
I have had some experience with semantic UI components recently and I enjoyed using it.
