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.

Trezor hardware wallets are now able to support the recent Bitcoin Taproot update.
well trezor it self is a company. The taproot upgrade for bitcoin was voted on using the taproot-activation consensus. https://taprootactivation.com/

Yes, it will support smart contracts when the taproot block is mined https://taprootactivation.com/ Should be around mid-November.
- Bitcoin gets more transactions per block with taproot and it just locked in for upgrade. Congratulations everyone.

Alyse Killeen mic drop at Bitcoin 2021
I agree in general, however Taproot and the Schnoor signatures implementation would theoretically allow more lightweight and sophisticated smart contract code on the blockchain while while increasing the TPS rate and lowering the cost. Taproot consensus (https://taprootactivation.com/) seems to be leaning toward accepting the soft fork so more varied smart contract code on Bitcoin's blockchain may be available sooner than later.

Taproot miner signal status
There are several small mining pools that have not signaled for Taproot in any of their blocks. Collectively, these pools produce approximately 4.77% of all blocks. Of these pools, only SpiderPool has explicitly expressed their support for Taproot via off-chain channels (see https://taprootactivation.com/).

Over 80% of mining pools have mined at least one taproot signaling block
Binance Pool (4.8% hashpower). They gave their support for Taproot back in 2020. Now they're playing games. Luckily the game ended in massive "yeses" that they should support taproot (the question is: who are the 20% of people who voted no??).

Arguably, the Bitcoin scalability efforts have been progressing too slowly. Second generation blockchain designs such as Ethereum and Avalanche are going to dethrone Bitcoin at some point.

Milk Sad: Weak Entropy in libbitcoin (bc) seed generation
libbitcoin isn't a company. It's an alternative C++ implementation (https://github.com/libbitcoin) to the Bitcoin Core (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin) implementation. Bitcoin Core is the one originally from Satoshi. Libbitcoin came in like 2011 or so iirc and was led by Amir Taaki. Libbitcoin is a lot less popular than Bitcoin Core, as you can see on the github stats.

>Comparing Bitcoin to free software seems similarly disingenuous.

Can the government make their own Nodes to follow and gather data?
Yes a government can. Bitcoin specifically is open source: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin. The ledger is public so as you pointed out there wouldn't be more details.

How are changes made to Bitcoin’s code?
Different implementations(core, knots,btcd,bcoin,libbitcoin, ....) have different ways of coming to consensus. The most popular implementation called core https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin follows these guidelines https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md

Does anyone know good TECHNICAL explanations of how Bitcoin works?

Titano Finance is a scam, stay away
Why is the source code a single file? No real code project that I've ever seen is built on 1 file. Take a look at BTC for example, that's what a real code project looks like.
What are some alternatives?
bisq - A decentralized bitcoin exchange network
cloc - cloc counts blank lines, comment lines, and physical lines of source code in many programming languages.
