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's a really niche tool you use that you can't live without?
dar is the only tool I know of that supports incremental backups to untrusted remote storage. All the remote sees are giant encrypted blobs.
- Backing up a folder to multiple destination drives
-
Uploading encrypted zfs volume to cloud
DAR is a linux tool that does incremental updates after a snapshot: http://dar.linux.free.fr/
- MergerFS or some other way to manually cycle disks to backup? (11TB of data backup to multiple 1TB and 2TB disks)
- Is there a backup software solution that treats HDDs like tapes and writes to them in sequence as they're inserted?

FFmpeg 7.0 Released
You can put these options in a config file and they will become the default: https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp?tab=readme-ov-file#configur...

Google fights Invidious (a privacy YouTube Front end)
Yep. yt-dlp and youtube-dl
https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp
https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl
Will also start to feel the impact. My theory is that we will see a bunch of new video hosting sites as youtube itself attempts to lock down its ecosystem. They haven't paid attention in any adversarial way as far as I can tell.
When they do, it wont be great.

XZ: A Microcosm of the interactions in Open Source projects
The points you make aren't unreasonable.
It is necessary to establish clear boundaries of what can and can be provided by the maintainers. If not done at an earlier stage of the project, the support burden becomes too much to bear at which point the maintainer transfers ownership, and the project suffers from catastrophic consequences such as the xz backdoor we're talking about here, or other cases where the project mostly stalls and serves as an ego-boosting platform for the new maintainer, as was the case with PhantomJS[6].
This can also happen in your life, where a "friend" sees that you possess a certain skill, and then gradually tries to push an inordinate amount of their personal work related to this field onto you.
Personally, I think it's best to use an approach with extremely clear communication as to what the maintainer can and cannot provide. This can be seen, for example, in yt-dlp[1], where the consumer is clearly informed upfront that not providing detailed information as requested will lead them to block said consumer; or sqlite where their position regarding contributed patches[2] and support[3] is similarly made clear.
Having a shouty BDFL like Torvalds can also help improve code quality[4] and questionable contributions[5], though it is better that the shouty BDFL makes statements that are professional and do not show as much aggression; so for example, "Mauro, shut the fuck up"[7] would become "Mauro, your response is completely unbecoming for a Linux kernel maintainer, and is not in line with the promise of not breaking userspace."

Or just "yt-dlp "
yt-dlp ( https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp ) still works pretty well at the current state of Twitter.

Ask HN: YouTube – how to batch scrape comments and details for 300 videos?
Use: `yt-dlp with --write-comments --no-download --batch-file FILE`
