Also to be blunt: did it ever occur to you that the reason people are 
vanishing might be your own attitude?

You claim your time is limited, yet you cling to the most time-consuming 
way of distributed development: to apply patches by hand.

If you don't like github you can self-host an instance of gitlab or 
forgejo or whatever github-clone-of-the-day you like best. If you own 
the server the changes in tooling from SVN to git should be minimal.
