Could this module please be listed as alternative to the module page?

Added this module as alternative module. Although it was already listed as inspiration I added a link to this issue so we can discuss here.

Hi @rodrigoaguilera and @Anybody, I was just made a maintainer of this module with the goal to get a D10 release.
This module is under minimum maintenance so I am happy about the efforts to go on https://www.drupal.org/project/menu_item_fields → fully as the code seems really robust and it offer more features than this module.
I will mention this module as a suggested alternative in the project page.

Great that this can move forward.
It has been a while since I don't check the situation of both modules.
Surprisingly menu_item_fields has 1437 sites using the module while menu_link_content_fields has 66.@fjgarlin
It is not clear to me the next actions you plan as maintainer of this project. Are you still going to release a D10 version?
From having a look at the code I think you can install menu_item_fields and uninstall menu_link_content_fields without losing any data.
No breaking changes should happen either since the new features depend on using the new block provided to display menus.With so few sites using it I feel reluctant to write a detailed migration path.

I’ve already created a D10 release and also added a link to the other module in the project page.
Happy to do more things if needed but i wasn’t planning as the module was already marked as minimally maintained.

Well as of #6 it might be a good idea to perhaps even deprecate this module for the other one, so that for further Drupal major releases no further coding is required?
Maintainers should decide :) But why invest the time and work twice... better help with the mature module.

Marked as deprecated, obsolete, and also highlighted the alternative modules with a big warning div.
Hopefully it is clearer now: https://www.drupal.org/project/menu_link_content_fields →Totally agree with going with the more mature module.
With so few sites using it I feel reluctant to write a detailed migration path.
Agree.
