But that's why 9front was forked, right? They say it on their FAQ. Even though
Plan 9 isn't being developed anymore, doesn't the fork cause worry that one day
they become too different, especially since the community is rather centered

9front be accepted as the official continuation of Plan 9?
I'm afraid you got it wrong. Community is mostly centered around
9front. One of the reasons is that it actually works and is still
being developed and used by many. Plan 9 is dead, 9front lives on.
The Raspberry Pi port of Plan 9 would appear to be alive and well and
likewise I hear of porting to more recent architectures, which is
similarly work being done outside of 9front.
