Unfortunately yes. There is more info here:

Red Hat has instructed us to stop work on several core desktop
components. All of these components need new maintainers now. The
switcheroo-control repo has now been archived, and a future new
maintainer will need to recreate the repo in a new location. It's
certainly not good news. :(
It looks like these fdo / non-GNOME projects would need new homes / maintainers:
- power-profiles-daemon
- switcheroo-control
- iio-sensor-proxy
- low-memory-monitor
Looks like they are *all* installed by default in Fedora Workstation.
So it would likely be a good idea if *somebody* took them over ...
I'm not saying I'm volunteering though - I can write decent Rust code,
but C scares me, especially the GObject kind ;)
