Valkey Is Rapidly Overtaking Redis
Changelog line items is probably a better measure (assuming the line items are aligned to features and bugfixes and not just a list of PRs) https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey/releases
Maybe version number/release cadence is also helpful.

Redis Is Forked
There were copious reference links in the article but the one that stood out to me and that I spent some time reading was this GitHub issues discussion on license [1] (but really on the differing opinions of two of the larger forks communities and values).
I am pleased that Valkey has made the decision to remain independent from the competing Redict fork project. The dogmatism on display in that thread is frustrating. It is one thing to stand by your own principles and opinions, it is entirely another thing to aggressively push your opinions onto others. With the two projects remaining independent, we will get to see which kind of community stewardship results in project success and longevity. The alternative, I fear, might have been technically minded people being railroaded by ideologically driven zealots.
Dogmatism and zealotry are words we probably mostly associate with religion, but I think they apply exactly to the kind of people I would proactively exclude from any public community I was trying to build.

Redict 7.3.0, a copyleft fork of Redis, is now available
