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.

It's 2023, so of course I'm learning Common Lisp
You may be interested in https://github.com/nobody-famous/alive which brings the power of slime to vscode (Mostly, it's relatively new and missing some features, but getting better all the time)

Owner of Symbolics Lisp machines IP is interested in a non-commercial release
I’ve recently been enjoying using Alive with vscode(and copilot). Everyone suggests emacs+slime but it always felt like too many things to learn at once. Being able to use my usual ide has made it so much more pleasant. Recommend it to newcomers.

New Common Lisp IDE for Jetbrains IDES/Intellij - Feedback appreciated
I was motivated to learn some lisp last year but couldn't find any usable plugins for IntelliJ (and I refuse to learn Emacs). I ended up using VSCode with the Alive extension: https://github.com/nobody-famous/alive

What features should a Lisp IDE have?
Also perhaps collab with this dev. https://github.com/nobody-famous/alive

Help me understand how the REPL actually works
I also read up on alternatives, and also tried out the alive VSCode extension. Unfortunately, I could not get it to work on my machine.

-
IDE without vim or emacs.
My recommendation would be Alive, a Visual Studio Code extension. It still has a few rough edges (for example, one bug I tripped on is that it doesn’t work super great with VSCode’s anonymous tabs, it apparently expects a file on disk), but is still far and away the best free non-emacs CL development environment I’ve used.

A standalone zero-dependency Lisp for Linux
Have you made or plan to make any contributions to Mezzano (https://github.com/froggey/Mezzano) or are you mainly interested in seeing how far you can take this thing on your own?

Why Lisp?
>> except building compilers and OSes
SBCL is written in Lisp, yes? Except the runtime, which is C + asm.
I've heard people wrote some OSes in the past, like Genera. Or if you prefer recent attempt, try https://github.com/froggey/Mezzano. Never tried it, though.

Help needed - new programming language
No need to.
-
Dynamic, JIT-compiled language for systems programming?
Not at all. See mezzano for a notable recent example of an OS written entirely in a dynamic language.

What help is needed for Lisp community in order to make Lisp more popular?
So..
"Why do you want to make Lisp more popular? If you were sucessful, what would be different in the world, and why is that desirable to you?"
Normally at this point I'd listen to the response, and ask more questions based on that. That would wind up with a very, very deep thread, so I'll break a cardinal rule and pre-guess at some answers.
This kind of question comes up pretty frequently. In many cases, I suspect the motivation behind the question is "Wow! Here's this cool tool I've discovered. I want to make something really useful with it. I want to do it as part of a community effort; share my excitement with others, share in their excitement, and know that what I'm making is useful because others find it desirable and are excited by it." The field could be cooking, sports, old machine tools, tiny homes, or demo scene. Its the fundemental driver for most content on HN, YouTube, Instructables, and such. It is a Good Thing.
If that is your motivator, then my suggestion is to find something that bugs you and fix it. You've already decided you're only interested in code, not other aspects. You said you preferred vim, but the emacs ecosystem has a very rich set of sharp edges that need filing off, and a rich set of tools with which to attack them.
One example: even after 50 years there's no open IDE which allows you to easily globally rename a Lisp identifier. I don't know about LispWorks or other proprietary environments, but you can't in emacs or vim do a right-click on "foo" in "(defun foo ()...)" and select a command which automatically renames it in all invocations. [Queue lots of "but you can..." replies here.] I don't think vim is up to the task of doing this internally. It would be possible in emacs; but would require a huge effort with lots of help from other people. If you emerged alive from that rabbit warren you'd join the company of Certified "How Hard Could it Be?" Mad Scientists such as Dr. "I just want to draw molecules" Meister [1] and "Wouldn't an OS in Lisp be Cool" Froggey [2].

Emacs should become a Wayland compositor
You might want to look at Mezzano which is an operation system written in Common Lisp https://github.com/froggey/Mezzano
I haven’t tried it since moving to M1/ARM, but it is cool.
- are there emacs machines?
