Is this project still actively developed?

Is this project still actively developed? There are bugs for 1+ year that have made the app not functional for many uses. If inactive, since this is project is in public domain, is it possible that someone else could take over maintaining latest revision?

Looking at https://github.com/arc298/instagram-scraper/network showing the 100 most recently pushed forks:

@benwinding 3 days ago

@speedholicktp 24 days ago

@ShuBhamg0sain 1 month ago

@duskvirkus 7 months ago

@Ahmedasdube 7 months ago

the rest are 1+ year ago

Note: I'm not sure on procedure for this, but I was just curious to mention because it appears @arc298 hasn't been active since 7 months
