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.

Text UIs != Terminal UIs
I mean mainly things like this:
https://github.com/aristocratos/btop/blob/main/Img/alt.png
Great work, it looks amazing! But what's the point of going through all the pain of rendering graphs in text? At that point, give me an actual graph. The code will be less messy and the information display will be better.

Command line tools I always install on Ubuntu servers
Btop is even more advanced than htop. It is almost like a GUI in terminal, and it feels like a dashboard of an airplane. I like it, but when I want to see what processes are using most of my resources, it is usually htop that comes to my mind and not btop, since btop shows more by default than I usually want. For more information see https://github.com/aristocratos/btop.

What's the appeal of the TUI programs?
btop blows me away every time I use it.

20 Awesome Command Line Tools for the Mac!
Htop is good, but these days I prefer using Btop.

Harlequin.sh DuckDB IDE for your terminal
I love this and will definitely try it out! Although I admit I'm a little puzzled when people simultaneously want to do a TUI but also design things so there is generous (excessive, actually) whitespace around everything to create the illusion of "minimalism" or "comfort".
It's a TUI! It should be buzzing with numbers, packed with information, sparing with space and using every pixel possible. btop[1] is a great example imo — one of the best.

Wifi Adapter not working
I am using Arco Linux (Arch Based) and today my machine was working as normal, but then I lost Wifi connection. I had btop opened in another monitor and when o lost connection, it crashed. Don't know what it means. This has happened before, but before I would just restart and everything would work fine again, but now, the OS doesn't show me anything Wifi related. When it happens,restarting shows are logs that normaly don't appear (can't show them here because they are now showing up anymore) and it takes a long time to restart, if it even restarts, sometimes I have to press down the power button (it's that bad). My mother is TUF GAMING X670E-PLUS WIFI, the Wifi adapter is the one that comes with the motherboard. I am on the Linux kernel 6.4.2 (I think), I updated the system this morning. On Windows (where I am writing this from), I don't have this problem.

Are there an alternative to htop that lets me see the total resource usage per app?

- Why should you need a separate project? Better coding practice would be to make the project portable for even Windows.

Looking for Rust Project Ideas for Semester Project - Any Suggestions?
Rewrite something like https://linux.die.net/man/1/iotop in Rust. Currently it is implemented in python, and running it as root does not give a warm fuzzy feeling.( I C version has also been made : https://github.com/Tomas-M/iotop but I have not reviewed that )

A little review of process (task) monitors and system info tools
Process monitoring is mandatory but CPU and I/O monitoring can be useful. It does a moveable window so I can watch it on a second monitor, along with other app windows, when the app I'm testing is running full screen so conky, although nice, is not quite what I need. In a terminal I use htop and/or iotop but I find graphical apps to be easier to read. I didn't want to have to compile anything or use Flatpak/Snap/AppImage/whatever but there's already a bunch of monitors in the repos so I checked them out and here's what I found.

BTOP++ is a power resource monitor for Linux
I recommend the C reimplementation of iotop btw, it has lots more features and is more efficient and is maintained. It is packaged as iotop-c in Debian and other distros.
What are some alternatives?
bpytop - Linux/OSX/FreeBSD resource monitor

bashtop - Linux/OSX/FreeBSD resource monitor
bottom - Yet another cross-platform graphical process/system monitor.
conky - Light-weight system monitor for X, Wayland (sort of), and other things, too
nvtop - GPU & Accelerator process monitoring for AMD, Apple, Huawei, Intel, NVIDIA and Qualcomm
