Hey,
I was looking at these metrics: https://github.com/dylanaraps/neofetch/branches/active https://github.com/dylanaraps/neofetch/branches https://github.com/dylanaraps/neofetch/issues https://github.com/dylanaraps/neofetch/pulls
and it's not looking good. Do we have the wrong upstream in our current ebuild?

[[PGP Signed Part:Undecided]]
Upstream is totally abandoned with no updates for 2 years. The situation
has spawned multiple forks and there are different maintained
alternatives available now in Gentoo's repository. To list a few:
fastfetch, hyfetch, screenfetch
If you're aware of more/better alternatives, please add them to the package.mask file at your will. Bug #916040
