The next major release is coming soon! There are a few big enhancements coming in this version:
Cross-object sharing rules (Github issue 8)
FormulaShare has always helped to use information from related objects to determine sharing.
This ability has just been boosted in a big way!
It's now possible to share based on a field in an object connected through a series of lookups to the shared object*
Significant functional and usability enhancements have arrived!
This version is now available to install from the AppExchange. Automatic upgrades to production orgs will take place from January 2021 unless requested otherwise. See the sections below for an overview, and check the help guide for full details.

Bugfix: Custom object trigger deletions remove shares for other records (Github)
Prior to this release, if the documented approach was used for trigger code on a custom object, the line below would have the effect of removing all FormulaShare sharing for records for this object other than the records being created or updated:
delete helper.getSharesToDelete();
Separate internal and internal and portal subordinate sharing options (Github)
Bypass batch calculation when no rules defined in org (Github)
Support for rule configuration via custom metadata
Standard and custom object support
Sharing to roles, roles and subordinates, users or groups
