I use Lit and have a tiny bit of MS/FAST in one project. You're right. Neither site gets updated. I think both have terrible doc, really. I didn't learn anything from the Lit starter or the intro doc. Only the interactive tutorial was of any use.
I think FAST is dead because MS doesn't want to play keep-up with it. In fact, all of the component libraries that Lit advertises on their home page (https://lit.dev https://lit.dev) seem be Thanksgiving leftovers put out on a buffet. No one is seriously updating a set of web components for public use.
But... perhaps that is because Lit isn't really great for making components for others? It doesn't get you out of the work of documenting them, for example, which is already done with canned component libraries. It certainly puts all the fixes back on you.
In my experience, Lit is terrific for green sheet projects and ones where you can keep everything in-house. But there is no "Lit community" or resources for people getting into it who want a jump start. And no great tutorial doc.
Unsurprisingly, you don't see Lit discussed too much anywhere!
