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.

Is there a way to save space of ark?

400GB? Seriously? 25+ hours worth of waiting just to play it? Why is ark like this?
Also, check out CompactGUI. It's a more user-friendly and efficient way of using Windows' built-in compression to cut the game's file size almost in half. It makes load times marginally longer (like 5-10%) and needs to be redone every few updates to keep the size down, but it works.

Modern Game File Sizes Be Like
You can chuck compact.exe at it by hand (use the /exe option), or if you'd prefer to avoid the command line there's my Compactor tool, or the venerable CompactGUI.

The era of 100GB games is upon us, and the average PC gamer is underprepared
You can also just use compactGui smaller filesizes without having to remove dialogs or cutscenes or anything. Obviously how much space is regained depends on how well it was compressed originally. With triple A titles perhaps getting 10% back, while things like ark can literally be shrunk by hundreds of gigs.
- Can we talk about client size? We are approaching 50GB!
- PSA: Use CompactGUI to reduce the the game's file size without any performance hit. I reduced the size from 81 GB to 56 GB.

For me ARK is 190GB but for my friend it is 160GB
Not really related to your question but if you want to try and save some space you can give this a go, I've used it before and never had any issues. https://github.com/IridiumIO/CompactGUI

What are you rewriting in rust?
But I'd suggest joining an existing project instead. This week in Rust has a call for participation section each week. There are also some exciting rewrites like arti, gitoxide, fish, and a steady stream of projects announced in this sub.
