Cantata has halted development https://github.com/CDrummond/cantata
might be a good idea to switch upstream to a fork in the future, I've found this one for example: https://github.com/buckmelanoma/cantata-next
I agree that upstream should be switched but the big problem is that none of the forks collaborate to actually continue the development as a team effort. They're all minding their own business, everyone is ignoring bug fixes by anyone else, and none emerged as the go-to destination, yet. https://github.com/WurdahMekanik/cantata/tree/qt6_migration is a Qt6 port, for example.
