The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
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.

Sudo Replacement
For example, there is this (pure safe Rust) code: https://github.com/ben0x539/totally-safe-transmute/blob/main... which accesses external resources (/proc/self/mem) in order to violate the safety guarantees.

A rust crate that lets you compress ASCII text to a single Unicode "character"
The first is the totally_safe_transmute crate. I mean, who wouldn't love library code that has .expect("welp") and .expect("oof") as its error handling? But that's not even the really scary part. Issue #2 ("i hate this") remains open to this day, but for obvious reasons there's no chance of resolution. This post has some context and a line-by-line explanation of how it works.

What do you expect from Rust in 2023?
You mean like this?

In C# you can transmute without `unsafe`
You can also do that in rust on linux: https://github.com/ben0x539/totally-safe-transmute/blob/master/src/lib.rs

Why choose Rust
I want to correct this statement: Rust can be safer, but not if a library you use contains unsound code. Unsoundness is most often caused by unsafe code, but not always (totally_safe_transmute, anyone?). There is a misconception that unsafe code blocks are always unsound and should be avoided at all costs, but they're completely fine if the safety contracts are upheld. In fact, unsafe blocks isolate the potential issues to make it easier to identify where undefined behavior may be occurring. unsafe code blocks are a feature of the language, and their usage should not be viewed as opting out of any safety the language provides, imo.

"# NONONONONONO DON'T YOU FUCKIN' DARE the safety features are there so that your programs aren't filled to the brim with security vulnerabilities. Unless you care A LOT(And I mean A LOT A LOT) about compile times, never use `unsafe`."
Just reimplement totally_safe_transmute in Zig. No need for unsafe.

I mean, it solves most library conflicts
Why transmute() when you can totally_safe_transmute()?

Well, there is always the totally-safe-transmute.

// SAFETY: NO
They should use https://github.com/ben0x539/totally-safe-transmute
What are some alternatives?
When comparing Rudra-PoC and totally-safe-transmute you can also consider the following projects:
project-safe-transmute - Project group working on the "safe transmute" feature
tinyvec - Just, really the littlest Vec you could need. So smol.
