You're absolutely right. Something suitable will probably be available at any future point in time.

  Come to think of it, I have been bitten by something like this before. I used the (mostly) single-developer project clojure-android to build an app and had no good options when bit-rot set in.

    Sure but even then, forking & fixing that one library will be a walk in the park compared to remaking Figma or Google Docs if those sites ever go down. They don't seem like remotely comparable risks.

      "fixing that one library will be a walk in the park compared to remaking Figma or Google Docs if those sites ever go down" Most core tech is trivial to rebuild for a single user. It becomes complex over time due to scale and with the addition of user-guardrails. I've been running a homegrown Object-Oriented Database for months without issue. It's less than 100 lines of Python including the interface.
