Same. I do a lot of research and try to get a sense of the person/team behind it and their values, vision, dedication, if they accept outside contributions, etc.

A few years ago it became popular to document the project processes, but it all turned into generic code of conduct garbage and abstract governance pillars, as if they were writing a constitution. So looking at GitHub issues and commit history is still the best way. And very well invested time.
