Asking AssaultCube players here (if there are any at all), is the game still alive despite how old it is? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

So i was looking around some stuff and discovered AssaultCube, i do remember hearing it's open source so i thought that topic might fit here (feel free to correct me if i am wrong)

I have been wanting to try that for sometime now but was worried if the game was dead or not (i won't mind if the playerbase is small or big, all i care about is if there's servers still running and if there's still people in it) and this might be a dumb question to ask since idk if there's any AssaultCube players or if there is even anyone here that knows it's existence but is the game alive at all? if not, are there alternatives that are more active? (AssaultCube-like or not, just any open source shooter game will do fine and i've already tried xonotic, good game and will play that again sometime lol)

Dang, I played the crap out of this over a decade ago, nostalgic lol.

Unless there is a small dedicated community that you can find of players, your best bet is probably to get some friends/family to play it with you.

I would imagine there's a small community still keeping it alive, it's just like what happened to day of defeat or team fortress classic.. there's a small percentage of people still playing it, at least it seems like it (i think counter strike source or 1.6 had the same thing happen too despite the fact counter strike 2/CSGO exists)
