Yes, obviously the current situation isn't ideal, but it's not too bad either and we have found one good, but probably not so well-known yet
way to tackle this: the dlang-community organization on GH
(https://github.com/dlang-community).
A lot of important, but more or less abandoned repositories have been adopted, s.t. there's a common place to submit bug fixes and feature PRs and its ensured by CIs that they are always in a good state, e.g.
always compile with the latest DMD.

Wait, have libdparse et al. been abandoned? What happened to Brian?

I don't think the intended interpretation is that all projects there were abandoned; many projects important to the D ecosystem have been moved there, which includes some otherwise-abandoned projects.

Yes, sorry for the poor wording of less abandoned". I picked it for Brian's project because it used to take ~1-2 months for a simple bug fix to get in. Now it can be merged within a day. No worries, Brian is still developing his tools (e.g. https://github.com/dlang-community/dfmt/pull/318), but other people do more active development on/with his awesome libs at "upstream".
