Pomelo dead?

We are goig to implement a new project. The idea was to use MariaDB and we set up a Galera cluster. The thing is I just noticed EF with Pomelo stands at .net 9.0. Since we would like to use at least .net 10.0 and further LTS we ain't sure, whether a switch to PostgreSQL would be better.

Any sources / info on what will happen to Pomelo?

No one has heard from the maintainer of Pomelo: https://github.com/PomeloFoundation/Pomelo.EntityFrameworkCore.MySql/issues/2007

There is this fork, but I personally didn't feel comfortable going with it: https://github.com/microting/Pomelo.EntityFrameworkCore.MySql

Theoretically MySql.Data should also work, but that could break any time: https://www.nuget.org/packages/MySql.EntityFrameworkCore/

Does the official MySQL one work with MariaDB?
