There's an ongoing discussion about this here: https://github.com/MoreMcmeta/core/issues/72
It's already something that I want to do at some point, but adding support for a new loader is a lot of work. Even though the code might be mostly the same, the build scripts have to be updated for all of MoreMcmeta's components (core, 5 default plugins, and emissive-plugin), and then there is more thorough testing required for a new loader.
I have seen the movement of other mods to NeoForge, so this has become one of the higher priority items, but it depends on when I am able to do all this work. People are welcome to make PRs to start on this, but so far that hasn't happened.
Statistically, MoreMcmeta is downloaded more on Forge than on Fabric, so I would not want to drop support for the original Forge.

Understandable

I was not aware of this, thank you for pointing this out :)
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Forge in general is starting to lack mod support as it is being superseded by Neoforge (due to Neoforge having more active development than Forge nowadays, due to the former Forge team switching over to Neoforge development.), More mods support Neoforge than support Forge on newer minecraft versions (specifically on any minecraft version above 1.20.1, which is the last minecraft version where Forge has better mod support than Neoforge)
I think it is personally time to make the switch.
Describe the solution you'd like
Supporting Neoforge as either a modloader option for end users, OR fully committing to Neoforge and dropping forge (either option im happy with, i just want Neoforge to be supported so i can use this lovely mod with my modpack).
Describe alternatives you've considered
Not sure there would really be an alternative besides simply ignoring this request (which you always reserve the right to do, i dont expect free labor from unpaid mod devs, as always i respect whatever decision you decide to make)
Which Minecraft versions would this feature apply to?
Ideally, 1.21.1+, though the specific versioning is for you to decide.
Additional context
I think that Neoforge is basically the future of *forge modding, its already basically being superseded by basically every large content mod either fully switching over to Neoforge (and fully dropping their Forge port, like immersive engineering as an example off the top of my head) or maintaining both a Forge and Neoforge port.
The writing is on the wall at this point, IMO.
