Comment (by markemer):
With the upcoming [https://developer.apple.com/documentation/fskit FSKit]
I'm determined to get a GPL/AGPL macFUSE replacement going. The downside
here is that it will only work for 15 and maybe 14. I know I'm not the
only one either - I assume a bunch of people are going to band together to
do it.
We also went through this a few years ago when it happened. I don't really
love what the guy did, and he @pmetzger got into a bit of a back and forth
on github, but for now we're sticking with it.
I don't love it. Homebrew removed it for a similar reason - but I
understand we don't want to break a bunch of ports people need.
