Is MS still working on Xamarin Forms?

I am using Xamarin.Forms.Shell and there are a lot of bugs which are of kind 'showstopper'. I am waiting for updates and bug fixing for months now, but there is nothing. The last build (5.0.1.2031-nightly) was published on May 5th 2021, 10 weeks ago! So my question is: Is this still maintained??

    The efforts have been moved to MAUI for years.

    But Xamarin Forms 5.0 still receives bugfixes if you check the 5.0.0 branch on GitHub and the latest commit happened 2 days ago there.

    Microsoft will keep Xamarin Forms for a while as it will take months for users to migrate to MAUI.
