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.

Why is no one making a new version of old Facebook?
They do, or rather not old Facebook, but old VK: https://github.com/grishka/Smithereen
As a bonus it's an ActivityPub enabled application, so any specific instance of it requires less work to get the network effect going. :)

Ask HN: Show me your half baked project
https://github.com/grishka/Smithereen
A Facebook-style ActivityPub server. Has wall posts, groups, and events.
Not yet "ready" — 1.0 would need much better moderation tools, photo albums (with tagging), discussion boards (in groups), and a client API. Direct messages are a work in progress right now.
I myself use it daily for my participation in the fediverse.

VSCode config to disable annoyances – telemetry, notifications, welcome pages
Unfortunately I don't think it fits any of the projects I work on (and I don't use VSCode to begin with, never had it installed, bit I do see an IntelliJ plugin as well).
I have one project that's a server application (https://github.com/grishka/Smithereen), but since it uses lots of custom stuff on top of the Spark micro-framework, your plugin would probably not work on it. I imagine it does expect projects to be structured idiomatically for the framework they use, at least to some degree. Spark also doesn't know anything about databases, so that is all custom as well. Oh and I also hacked it a bit with reflection to allow streaming responses.

Meta selling new “Meta Verified” blue badge for $12-15/month
I'm building a fediverse project that aims to fill this exact niche. It's basically a recreation of an early-ish version of VKontakte (Russian Facebook) but federated. It's not really ready yet, and there are lots of important features missing, but I do use it daily for my primary fediverse account.
I, too, am sick of all the existing social media companies trying their damnest to cater to the entertainment use case no one ever asked for.

Misskey: An Interplanetary Microblogging Platform
I'm building an ActivityPub thing of my own: https://github.com/grishka/Smithereen
It's not quite ready for mainstream use just yet, but I'm getting there. The next update will improve moderation tools by a lot. One after that will, at last, add private messages.

Ask HN: Who is working on fully decentralized social networking?
I know of Smithereen[1] that is an attempt at a full fledged social network similar to VK on top of the ActivityPub vocabulary.

Trust-Based Moderation Systems
Slightly off topic:
I am trying to innovate on moderation systems and I run/code a whitelist moderated forum [0]. You can only see posts and comments from users that you follow. It's a very simple system and there really aren't any gaming vectors. One implication is that if a new user signs up and posts, no one will see it unless they follow. I've actually never used any typical censorship moderation.

Ask HN: Show me your half baked project
Reddit clone:

For moderation, a user whitelist sits in front of the typical content blacklist, which introduces some interesting properties.

Ask HN: Websites that works with old browsers (mid-2000's browser)?
I think my forum should work:
https://www.commentcastles.org
I can't think of anything that would be broken except for maybe the logo which is an emoji character.

You're So Vain, You Probably Think This App Is About You: On Meta and Mastodon
You may want to check out Comment Castles [0] (disclaimer, I'm the creator). There are 50k comments, but I have never moderated anything. Actually, there are no moderation or admin tools built into the project.
