Hand over the project?
You go to GitHub, click fork and now you’re the new project lead.
It’s always kind of weird to see people (not you, just something I often see in these threads) treating open source projects like they’re commercial products where they can make demands.
These are projects done in people’s free time and their work is provided to everyone for free. Sure, report bugs and feature requests but crossing into personal attacks on the developers or going full Karen (“red flag” is usually a good indicator of this type) is out of line.
Don’t use projects that you don’t like, sure. But no person is entitled to dictate how another person’s project should go. That’s why there’s a fork button.
