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.

What can I do to smooth out support areas?
When in doubt run some calibration prints, I made my own but this model is probably better https://github.com/5axes/Calibration-Shapes/wiki/Support-Test
-
The default extruder max speed is lower than the default retraction speed
The test case I used was the calibration cube in the in the [Calibration Shapes Plugin](https://github.com/5axes/Calibration-Shapes/wiki/Calibration-Cube-XYZ) printing the walls outside to in.

I don’t know where to start tweaking and dialing in. So I did a temp tower. Results blew. Help!
Also, you could try out a retraction tower: https://github.com/5axes/Calibration-Shapes

What are the best 'towers'
You should look into the Calibration Shapes plugin for Cura. It'll let you generate many different towers quickly and the GitHub for it has the post-processing scripts that make them work.

Weird "wrinkles" in 3d print
I generally recommend printing a temperature tower to find the correct temperature for your filament and the settings you currently use. Pick the segment with the best result in bridging and surface.

Printing Issue
The first thing I would recommend is to level your bed again and the second thing is to print a temperature tower so that you can find the right temperature for the filament and your printing profile.

First layer/brim not staying down
CalibrationShapes has a bed level pattern I like to use. Keep printing and adjusting your corners until you have the perfect squish, and you will find your adhesion will be much better!

Sunlu PLA+
Personally, I always use this project for the temperature tower which also starts from the highest temperature and then drops lower and lower.

[OC] Guessing print times.
If you're interested: I created a script that will display the remaining time on your printer screen after each layer. https://github.com/louiswouters/3D-Printing
