Which has better activity and maintenance signals?

Based on the RepoPilot analysis signals:
google/exoplayer shows significantly weaker maintenance signals:
- Verdict: WAIT — Slowing with last commit 9 months ago
- The project is deprecated — the README explicitly states: "This GitHub project is deprecated. The latest version of ExoPlayer is published as part of AndroidX Media3."
- No new releases planned;
exoplayer:2.19.1was the last artifact released - Development has moved to https://github.com/androidx/media as of April 3, 2024
spring-cloud/spring-cloud-gateway signals are not provided in the data (no equivalent Verdict or commit-recency indicator), but the absence of a deprecation notice and the presence of active configuration and filtering code suggests ongoing maintenance. The code includes recent patterns like observability configuration and conditional bean definitions typical of actively maintained Spring Cloud projects.
Conclusion: spring-cloud/spring-cloud-gateway has substantially better activity and maintenance signals. ExoPlayer is explicitly deprecated and stale, with development migrated elsewhere. You should migrate ExoPlayer consumers to AndroidX Media3 per their migration guide.
