AerynOS maintainer confirms that founder Ikey Doherty hasn’t been in contact for six months but assures the project remains stable and on track.

During my brief exchange yesterday with the AerynOS team about the coverage of their updated 2025.10 ISO release, they mentioned something about the project’s founder, Ikey Doherty, that I wasn’t entirely sure how to take at first — specifically the part that stated, “he stepped back six months ago.”

Really looking forward to seeing where COSMIC goes now that they have the basics in place. It could really give Plasma and GNOME a run for their money.

As a Niri user, I am also very thankful for the maturity that COSMIC is driving in projects like Smithay.
