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.

Barcelona Supercomputing Center presents Sargantana: new open-source RISC-V chip
>Likely you couldn't even go back and make a fab that makes large volumes of 60nm-90nm node sizes at all, for any amount of money, because the equipment to do this (new) hasn't been made in 2 decades and no company is willing to invest the money to make new crappy old equipment.
I believe your argument assumes that there is a fixed cost to produce even 180nm or 350nm ICs that hasnt changed since the first one was produced.
We still need 300 years for a 300 year old tree, but 25 year old technology might now be relatively easy to build if we start from scratch.
What was high tech then might be relatively easy to solve now. One example might be https://github.com/circuitvalley/USB_C_Industrial_Camera_FPG... being open source instead of a multi year, multi million dollar project.

RISC-V support in Android just got a big setback
> Right now, most devices on the market do not support the C extension
This is not true and easily verifiable.
The C extension is defacto required, the only cores that don't support it are special purpose soft cores.
C extension in the smallest IP available core https://github.com/olofk/serv?tab=readme-ov-file
Supports M and C extensions https://github.com/YosysHQ/picorv32
Another sized optimized core with C extension support https://github.com/lowrisc/ibex

This one should get your goat, it implements as much as it can using only compressed instructions https://github.com/gsmecher/minimax

Minimax: a Compressed-First, Microcoded RISC-V CPU
In short: it works, though the implementation lacks the crystal clarity of FemtoRV32 and PicoRV32. The core is larger than SERV but has higher IPC and (very arguably) a more conventional implementation. The compressed instruction set is easier to expand into regular RV32I instructions than it is to execute directly.

I have created a Reddit community about PicoBlaze soft processor...
As for the size advantage: this mattered more when LUTs were precious and when PicoBlaze's competition was either similarly unorthodox (J1 Forth CPU) or several times larger (MicroBlaze). Nowadays, there are very small RISC-V cores like FemtoRV32 Quark or SERV. RISC-V benefits from mainstream open-source tooling and has momentum that's hard to beat.

RISC-V announces first new specifications of 2022 adding to 16 ratified in 2021
The RISC-V spec does allow non-trapping behavior and SeRV in particular has non-trapping behavior, which is an important part of how it can fit into 200 4-input LUTs.
