i've bought open source software companies before and without revenues you are useless. there's this idea that github stars and # of downloads mean something here, hate to break it to ya but they aren't worth much the rules/valuations of open source companies are no different than closed source ones, in fact, it will be harder to justify any sort of valuation because the code is widely available. Once you go away, another fork or iteration will spring up. Tougher when the insane multiples we enjoyed thanks to low interest rate is gone. You are better off trying to build the company but you probably already did that.
