How should our community treat out-of-date and abandoned Apps?

Sometimes a dev is away for an extended period of time, then returns to development. Sometimes an app is officially abandoned but still functions well. Sometimes an app may be under active development but not yet compatible with the latest version of Lemmy.

Should these apps be excluded from our Apps list? Which ones? What criteria should we use? Should we maintain a list of "Old Apps" for posterity, as a code database, etc?

As a surprising coincidence, I was in the midst of testing tesseract as I received this reply (replying now from the great web app). I believe you've said that it will not continue development for lemmy in the future if I recall correctly. I was able to log in just now with no issue. Does that mean it's compatible with 0.19?

Lol, that is a coincidence indeed.

Correct. I'm targeting Sublinks in the future, but since there's going to be a compatibility phase (where the two APIs will be 1:1 compatible), I've resumed development about a month ago (mostly bugfixes though I do have a feature branch with some new stuff - posting this reply from that dev branch right now 🙂).

So for the foreseeable future, Tesseract can be considered a Lemmy app. Not sure what I'll do when the APIs start to diverge, though.
