What happened to all the Clanker competitors?

Larry, Onsen, Bogus, Launcher, etc.

Feels like the devs have stopped working on these projects already (or at the very least, stopped posting about them)

I don't think it was a competitor as much as a different approach: frame deployment instead of nlp + your own pooled liquidity + alternative base pairs + initial liquidity allocation to creator but I think people prefer the hands-off approach at the end of the day

Lot of bells and whistles, but all replacement products (no code token deployment with social characteristics)
