Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Vala Programming Language
There's also a lot of apps written in Vala for elementary OS's AppCenter with screenshots & links to GitHub: https://appcenter.elementary.io/ (not all, but most). I published two apps there and using Vala has been a great experience for creating Gtk/Linux desktop apps.

elementary OS Updates for March, 2023
COVID hit like immediately afterwards so the sprint we had planned didn’t happen, but we did deliver on making AppCenter Flatpak-based so you can now install AppCenter apps on any distro just like you would any other Flatpak remote. You can browse and download apps at https://appcenter.elementary.io

A word about Linux developers and economy:
So, something along the lines of the elementary AppCenter?

Frustration with Linux'y installs... just venting....
I'm not sure why you said it is difficult to distribute Flatpaks outside of Flathub. On the repo host side elementary has their own Flatpak repo complete with an app payment system (before even Flathub has one). On the user side I can simply download a .flatpakref from appcenter.elementary.io and double click it, which will open Software with the app's metadata, and clicking Install will add the repo and install the app.

Is there a market for paid software designed for Linux?
Elementary OS has a pay what you want store. That might be a good route to go down.

Distro for Dell Inspiron 15 for some gaming, video editing, programming and design?
Yes, elementary is Ubuntu based, however it stands very far from it. It doesnt use snaps at all and instead uses flatpak. You can also just use apt if you really don't like Flatpak either. The "main" way to install software is through the AppCenter app, which uses flatpaks. They have their own software repository (appcenter) where apps are "curated" (aka all follow the elementary HIG and use the latest SDK version). But you can also install "non-curated" apps (aka from Flathub) directly from the AppCenter.

What is your ONE Steam Deck tip/trick you'd like to share?
You probably know that if you use desktop mode, you can use Discover to install a bunch of applications via Flatpak from a repository called Flathub. But, you can add an additional repository from another distro, Elementary OS, to get access to even more apps. They will show up in Discover, just like all others. To do this, simply execute:

Other than flathub what repositories are there?

If you could donate money to any Linux organization, distro or application what would it be and what functionality would you want your money to go towards?
AppCenter, which is focused on open source GTK apps and accepts payments on elementary OS

Is flathub the only flatpak repository?

Is my open-source project up to date with MIT license compliance and attribution?
My projects and many projects include a THIRD-PARTY-LICENSES.html file when I distribute binaries. See: https://github.com/kimono-koans/httm/blob/master/third_party/LICENSES_THIRD_PARTY.html

ZFS and Proxmox Questions
The only real advantage I can think of with nested ZFS is that the files in the KVM would obviously be individual inodes in the nested ZFS filesystem and datasets, in addition to the one inode per virtual volume on the hypervisor (or zvol). This would allow for granular file management on the kvm and the use of tools like https://github.com/kimono-koans/httm which is like a command line time machine for ZFS.

ZFS silent corruption bug found: replaces chunks inside copied files by zeroes
> It's worth noting that copy_file_range is used by a lot of things.
Yes, but the trigger feature, block cloning, only landed in the latest 2.2 release. If you immediately hopped on 2.2, and used a system with lots copy_file_range and FICLONE use, yes, you may have a problem (like, as you note, on Gentoo, where this problem surfaced).
Most people were just hopping on the bandwagon. My distro ships 2.1.5, so I have a 6 month wait until this feature lands, so I was just building copy_file_range support into my ZFS apps, right before news of this bug hit.[0]
> There are other things required to trigger the bug that are a lot less common though.
Exactly. My guess is the incidence of this will exceedingly rare for the common user/small NAS user/etc. I've run a corruption detector[0], and what I've found mostly indicates false positives. Some are build artifact fingerprints, which I don't care about, and which were deleted with the next build. The ones with an extant file on another system, I confirmed were a diff match with the origin using `rsync -rincv` and whats on snapshots with `httm --map-aliases`. So far no positive matches.

Are you running Linux with a filesystem capable of block cloning/FICLONE (ZFS >= 2.2, XFS, BTRFS)?
cargo install --git https://github.com/kimono-koans/httm --branch clones strace -f -o stderr.txt -e ioctl -- httm -r -R ~/.zshenv

Workflow: Rolling forward with ZFS and `httm`
httm prints the size, date and corresponding locations of available unique versions (deduplicated by modify time and size) of files residing on snapshots, but can also be used interactively to select and restore files, even snapshot mounts by file! httm might change the way you use snapshots (because ZFS/BTRFS/NILFS2 aren't designed for finding for unique file versions) or the Time Machine concept (because httm is very fast!).

Really no easy GUI Btrfs snapshots for Fedora 38?
All btrfs snapshot tools can have different layouts. It's mostly a nightmare for any one tool to support. Although its not the tool you're looking for, FYI AFAIK httm supports all/most btrfs layouts, but it took more work than necessary to get there.
- Why there is no tool that shows how file is changed over time across snapshots?
