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.

Mistral CEO confirms 'leak' of new open source AI model nearing GPT4 performance
I often like to think about https://github.com/chrislgarry/Apollo-11 as an analogy. It's public domain with available source, in the assembly language in which it was written... so it fills all the definitions of OSS!
But the process by which that code arose, the ability to modify any line and understand its impact (heh) on a real execution environment, is dependent on a massive process that required billions of dollars and thousands of the smartest people on the planet. For all intents and purposes, without that environment, it is as reliably modifiable as an executable binary in any other context - or a set of weights, in this one!

TIL an Oxford University physicist claimed that for the moon landing conspiracy to be true, around 411,000 people would’ve needed to keep it secret. He also suggests the hoax would’ve broken down in 3.68 years.
You can look at the Colossus 2A code written by Margaret Hamilton and her very small team on Github.

Software Disenchantment
My more positive take on this: our runtime environments are bloated because we have ways to enable trust, stability, and iteration speeds that people wouldn't have dreamed of in years past.
Your Notion desktop app and Google Chrome both support embedding & displaying multimedia content that's controlled by people that you may not trust, but they can draw on decades of engineering to sandbox that content. They can independently be updated without worrying about a centralized `flexbox.dll` that may or may not be the right version. They do not require building a new executable to make the vast majority of UI changes. And the cost is simply storage space and initial download bandwidth.
We can look with rose-colored glasses at an era of "every byte of assembly has been hand-crafted." I, too, look in awe at what was achieved with such things as https://github.com/chrislgarry/Apollo-11/tree/master/Luminar... . But that software, per https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_Guidance_Computer#Softw..., took 1400 person-years of work.
We have to compare apples to apples - the abstractions we have today would not prevent such a piece of software from being built, and indeed would allow us to build that exact software, even bit-for-bit the same, much more easily due to abstractions on our tooling itself. We have not departed a world where, given a nation-state budget, one could pay for 1400 person-years of work and create the AGC (though one might make arguments about the distraction levels of modern society, but that's a different thing entirely).
But we also exist in a world where I can build and ship a cross-platform video chat application in an afternoon (well, not counting app store approvals) and be reasonably confident that my app will be compatible with, and secure on, practically any computer or mobile device sold in the past half decade, regardless of how many other apps may have been installed on each device. I'd venture to say that Apollo engineers would, and do, find this aspect of our world fascinating, too.

Limited Reddit access?
Until now, I ran a script every day using bulk-downloader-for-reddit to archive about ten subreddits. It usually took less than an hour each time, even when he had to download video files of a few hundred MB.

Any methods with Unraid to Automatically download all saved items from Reddit
Look into bdfr, it's a cli reddit downloader.

Goodbye everyone
I'm with you! I've already mass edited all my comments on both and removed all my submissions on this account, and my other/older one. Just waiting on bdfr to finish pulling all of my saved things for me, then I'll delete both. I may just be a tiny drop in the user ocean, but some of my posts definitely helped others and contributed useful things.

How to keep my saved
A GDPR export should have all the data, but they’re taking their time processing. An alternative is to use an archiving tool like BDFR. Unfortunately, it’s limited to 1000 posts due to API limitations.

The future of r/ObscureMedia and Reddit
r/DataHoarder was the big reason I started using Reddit regularly. While I don't speak for all of them, many will suggest bdfr or HTTrack for all your scraping needs.

So, how is everyone?
I’m going to delete my Reddit account soon to further the protest, since by this point I don’t use it much anymore. I already backed up my entire post history using this tool since there are some important memories there for me, so I basically have nothing to lose now.
What are some alternatives?
