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.

Primitive Obsession
Did you serialsation look anything like mine? I'd be keen to hear if mine suffers from performance issues (I've yet to benchmark it, but it isn't doing anything too fancy): https://github.com/SteveDunn/StringlyTyped/blob/main/src/StringlyTyped/ValueObjectConverterFactory.cs

Robust Design through Value Objects in C#
As we anticipate advancements in C#, we can still forge ahead with crafting resilient applications by utilizing the "ValueOf" package as a provisional solution. Below, we create a validated EmailAddress class leveraging the package:

Probably better to use something like https://github.com/mcintyre321/ValueOf until we get a better solution (if we ever do). I agree that this is a pitfall.

Strong typedefs
The problem you’re describing here I think is ‘primitive obsession’, and the solution you’ve described is I think essentially a value object. This library might be useful https://github.com/mcintyre321/ValueOf

New Exception helpers in .NET 8
It lacks compile-time validation (though an analyzer that at least detects validation errors in the constructor should be fairly easy; more complicated flow control cases are probably hard), but at runtime, https://github.com/mcintyre321/ValueOf would let you do that.

Class vs Struct
If you want to wrap a small number of properties in a type to avoid primitive obsession, consider using ValueOf.

Is there anyway to override default values of the decimal type in c#?
You might be able to create a wrapper type with something like ValueOf.

Primitive Obsession
I good library I've found for addressing this issue is https://github.com/mcintyre321/ValueOf
What are some alternatives?
When comparing StringlyTyped and ValueOf you can also consider the following projects:
FSharp.UMX - F# units of measure for primitive non-numeric types
OneOf - Easy to use F#-like ~discriminated~ unions for C# with exhaustive compile time matching
WrapperValueObject - A .NET source generator for creating simple value objects wrapping primitive types.
