Ah ya, I do see how the optics of this could give off that impression. I don't use this library myself, but the issue is with Elixir 1.15.7 & OPT 26.1.26 which is VERY different than "It doesn't work on OTP 26." Certain patch versions of Elixir and OTP have caused problems before (sorry, I don't have a citation) and this particular issue looks like it's related to dependencies not syncing up on the config change?
I do think more libraries should give that little "We're still maintained" notice as people not totally ingrained in this might not realize. To some, the fact that there have been no issues reported now that we're on OPT 27 and Elixir 17 would be an indicator that all is well.
