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.

PSA: upgrade your LUKS key derivation function
People should stop using plain passwords to protect data and switch to something better.oster/ + Yubikey
-
[Boot error] Initramfs unpacking failed after updating to 6.0.1
Change from mkinitcpio to booster. It's faster and produce smaller images.
-
Dracut or Genkernel?
Neither, use booster.
-
Booster initramfs release 0.9 got ZFS support
Booster is an initramfs - a type of software that runs early during the boot process and helps to setup system, e.g. perform disk unlock, load extra drivers, setup ZFS filesystem, and so on.
-
You can end up without any kernel to boot if your computer crashes during a pacman update
I don't have high hopes that this will change in mkinitcpio, but perhaps you could bring it up with booster (which copied the mkinitcpio hooks and removal scripts)
-
Is There Something To Improve to my arch install "Guide"?
This is my personal preference, but consider switching to booster.
-
What is your current setup? Bootloader, filesystem, partitions, etc.
initramfs: booster - TPM2 support, way faster than mkinitcpio, autodiscovering root partition
-
Complex Issue:
Note I'm using booster, so assuming you're using the default mkinitcpio you probably want /boot/initramfs-linux.img. Also, don't forget to modify if your ESP isn't mounted at /boot like mine.
-
Systemd 250 released
Booster initramfs generator supports TPM, Yubikey and Network binding so you can easily protect your data using the strategy you want.

Booster dont loads with efistub
GPT table detection has higher priority at booster code. But for some reason it does not identify your partition table as GPT. Filed a github bug for it https://github.com/anatol/booster/issues/119
