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.

Apparently ProtonMail received a legal request from Europol through Swiss authorities to provide information about Youth for Climate action in Paris, they provided the IP address and information on the type of device used to the police
That is a bummer, although for now I guess it would be better than nothing to reach out to api.protonmail.ch through Tor. I'd be more motivated if it were an onion though. I had a look at the likely places it would need to be modified: https://github.com/ProtonMail/proton-bridge/search?q=dial and I think all it would take is to make a struct that extends https://github.com/cretz/bine so that it implements TLSDialer to make a drop-in Tor based connection. That would be very thorough and pretty escape-proof. I'm steadily talking myself into doing it...

Tor is a great sysadmin tool
Sure. I wrote https://github.com/cretz/bine (though I admittedly don't work on it much these days). I just have a few-line daemon that starts an HTTP (or gRPC or whatever) server on ephemeral onion service. Then I use that onion ID to access it (via TorBrowser or Orbot or a client built with the same library).

Can put it on Tor and give an ephemeral onion link (I wrote https://github.com/cretz/bine to help w/ just these use cases). So people could access via Tor browser or via the same CLI with a "client"/"get" command. Can even have the ephemeral server determine its been HTTP "GET"d and kill itself. Then you don't even need a public website.

Cwtch: Decentralized, privacy-preserving, multi-party messaging protocol
Shameless plug, I also wrote a simple lib that makes onion services easy: https://github.com/cretz/bine (OP's project uses a fork of it and I plan on putting more time into it soon)

Embedding Tor into an application without external installation.
https://github.com/ipsn/go-libtor and https://github.com/cretz/bine are excellent libraries to get you started. They do exactly what you are asking.

Rob Pike: Gobs of data (2011)
Someone made a benchmark of serialization libraries in go [1], and I was surprised to see gobs is one of the slowest ones, specially for decoding. I suspect part of the reason is that the API doesn't not allow reusing decoders [2]. From my explorations it seems like both JSON [3], message-pack [4] and CBOR [5] are better alternatives.
By the way, in Go there are a like a million JSON encoders because a lot of things in the std library are not really coded for maximum performance but more for easy of usage, it seems. Perhaps this is the right balance for certain things (ex: the http library, see [6]).
There are also a bunch of libraries that allow you to modify a JSON file "in place", without having to fully deserialize into structs (ex: GJSON/SJSON [7] [8]). This sounds very convenient and more efficient that fully de/serializing if we just need to change the data a little.

FastHttp for Python (64k requests/s)
Fasthttp is one of the most powerful webservers written in Go, I'm working on a project that makes it possible to use it as a webserver for Python.

Tools besides Go for a newbie
IDE: use whatever make you productive. I personally use vscode. VCS: git, as golang communities use github heavily as base for many libraries. AFAIK Linter: use staticcheck for linting as it looks like mostly used linting tool in go, supported by many also. In Vscode it will be recommended once you install go plugin. Libraries/Framework: actually the standard libraries already included many things you need, decent enough for your day-to-day development cycles(e.g. `net/http`). But here are things for extra: - Struct fields validator: validator - Http server lib: chi router , httprouter , fasthttp (for non standard http implementations, but fast) - Web Framework: echo , gin , fiber , beego , etc - Http client lib: most already covered by stdlib(net/http), so you rarely need extra lib for this, but if you really need some are: resty - CLI: cobra - Config: godotenv , viper - DB Drivers: sqlx , postgre , sqlite , mysql - nosql: redis , mongodb , elasticsearch - ORM: gorm , entgo , sqlc(codegen) - JS Transpiler: gopherjs - GUI: fyne - grpc: grpc - logging: zerolog - test: testify , gomock , dockertest - and many others you can find here

Beginner ~ Intermediate Go programmer, how can I get better in go and get out of the "beginner" phase?
The best example I can give you is https://github.com/nutsdb/nutsdb it’s great project that got me started, one thing one should know is Go is different “yep” so there’re some coding habits that may bite you in Go and the Go compiler won’t correct you, you wanna learn about optimizations, unsafe usage check out https://github.com/valyala/fasthttp (note this is deep the rabbit hole), wanna learn concurrency check out ants https://github.com/panjf2000/ants with a little aid from “Go by example” you’re good to go

Log: A minimal, colorful Go logging library 🪵
As I said in another comment, I think net/http is a good cautionary tale here. It was designed to be easy to use, and then grew organically, but performance never seems to have been a goal. fasthttp solves this, but bifurcates the ecosystem and passes on those costs to everyone who uses it. If net/http had been designed with performance in mind, this could have been avoided. net/http can't be removed or optimized, so this is a situation the Go ecosystem is effectively stuck with forever. At best, a faster version may end up in the std lib, just like netip is more modern and faster than net but the ecosystem is still bifurcated and adoption of the new package has been slow.

my office want to migrate to go programming language, what framework is recommended between chi or fiber?
Fiber, while has a lot of batteries included and decent for many use cases, is known for having corner cases (because of internals like fasthttp) like https://github.com/valyala/fasthttp/issues/622
