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 did org mode invent a new markup syntax instead of just going with markdown?
Here is the source code for org-md-export https://gitlab.com/akater/org-mode/-/blob/org-element-cleaner-parsers/lisp/ox-md.el. It's not too long as far as transformation code goes (~750 loc), but also not the most trivial. Of note are the parts that require larger functions (and therefore more logic) which seem to be the parts relating to org's cross-linking structure (links, headlines and headline references, as well as list items). I would love for them to be unified, but I'm guessing there may be surprising difficulties, and I'm guessing the necessary, incompatible changes would be too much to stomach for so many long-time users.

Why single vendor is the new proprietary
> why does open source need to "win"
Open source does not need to win.
But your ability to be in control of your computer needs to be preserved. A proprietary fridge cannot control your diet, while a proprietary App Store can control what software you install on YOUR phone (unless you live in EU, hello DMA!). The tail wags the dog, so to speak. Proprietary software has also been shown to break user workflows or remove functions in an update while leaving users with no choice whatsoever.
One alternative to having open source win is to ensure software must come with a robust warranty and other assurances you expect from the things you buy. EU's CRA will make software vulnerabilities in WiFi routers covered by warranty, for example.
You can also ensure robust and interoperable data storage options. For example, https://obsidian.md/ stores all notes in Markdown, not holding the data hostage in case users will not like how future versions will work. GDPR actually has a provision for data portability (Art. 20), but it does not seem to have a requisite effect on the industry yet.
And until the above issues are solved, open source remains the best way to ensure that a software tail cannot wag your computer dog.

Replatforming from Gatsby to Zola!
So I've had my fair share of personal websites and blogs. I have built them on stacks ranging from the most basic HTML and CSS, to hosted frameworks like Wordpress and Laravel, to the more modern single page applications built in Vue and React. For a simple content blog I think you can't go wrong with a Static Site Generator though. These days I am almost exclusively writing everything in Obsidian. Which is great because its all in standard markdown format. This allows for a really neat and easy content publishing workflow.

Consider making an Obsidian[^1] plugin, or writing to Obsidian-compatible Markdown files :)
