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.

Baby's first Rust with extra steps (XPC, launchd, and FFI)!
I wondered if there was something similar to LaunchControl that could run in a terminal. I've used chkservice on Linux, but there seems to be no macOS equivalent. I've been dying for an excuse to learn a little bit of Rust (loved n+1 years in a row by the SO developer survey2) -- so this was my chance. Several months later I ended up with launchk. The rest of this post will go over: getting started, interfacing with launchd, a lot of macOS IPC bits, getting stuck, and a bunch of probably questionable Rust FFI stuff.

systemd GUI that works and is maintained (and will work on Mint)?
There is chkservice, which runs, but it ncurses rather than true GUI and some of its actions fail with a message saying . . graphical elevation is needed. And it's a bit arcane to use. (Github page.)

Support HTTP over Unix domain sockets
Another LD_PRELOAD based solution can be found here: https://github.com/nixcloud/ip2unix
I use it to run a number of services under systemd, and haven’t had any issues.

Torrent clients with a web interface that can listen on a Unix socket?
I’m not aware of any clients that will do the former, but if that’s what’s you’re looking for you could consider using ip2unix [https://github.com/nixcloud/ip2unix].
What are some alternatives?
systemdgenie - Systemd managment utility
ctsTraffic - ctsTraffic is a highly scalable client/server networking tool giving detailed performance and reliability analytics
launchk - Cursive TUI that queries XPC to peek at launchd state
dns-lookup - 🌍 DNS hostname resolution CLI tool using BSD sockets

InitKit - Neo-InitWare is a modular, cross-platform reimplementation of the systemd init system. It is experimental.
rust-block - Rust interface for Apple's C language extension of blocks.
spacesockets2 - SpaceSockets2 makes socket programming much easier for C++ developers.
rust-bindgen - Automatically generates Rust FFI bindings to C (and some C++) libraries.
amd-disable-c6 - Systemd service to automatically disable the C6 power saving state on AMD Zen (Ryzen / Epyc) processors
