Risky to adopt for currently supported Laravel applications: the package documentation explicitly says it is deprecated because Laravel includes this middleware, and it has had no release or commit activity for about 18 months. It remains licensed, tested in its repository, and technically installable, but the maintenance and relevance concerns are substantial.

The package includes a substantial README, while the source repository has tests and a changelog. However, the README explicitly says this middleware is deprecated because supported Laravel versions include it in the framework, making the release a poor choice for those applications.
Only two releases are recorded, with no releases in the last 12 months and the latest release about 18 months ago. This strongly suggests the package is no longer actively evolving, consistent with its deprecation notice.
The package and repository are owned by the same personal account, so the source link is coherent. There is no organization backing shown to offset the thin current maintenance evidence.
The repository recorded zero commits and zero active maintainers in the last three months, indicating no recent maintenance capacity. The repository is not archived, but that does not compensate for the lack of current activity.
The repository reports zero stars, forks, and watchers, offering no community adoption evidence. Popularity is only supporting evidence, so this reinforces the maintenance concern without deciding the verdict alone.
