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.

The Loudest Lisp Program
But after you get past some basic weird stuff, it's a quite wonderful language.
> I can only speak for myself, but I definitely reason about code outside in rather than inside out.
You can indent code to make it much easier to "parse", and use some macros that turn the code inside/out, it's more readable than most other languages.
The CL cookbook is an excellent resource, and this page links to several other excellent resources and books you can read for free online: https://lispcookbook.github.io/cl-cookbook/
The "new docs" also present the documentation in a "modern" looking way (rather than the 90's looks of what you get if you Google around): https://lisp-docs.github.io/cl-language-reference/
About other Lisps...
The Racket Guide is definitely not "bone-dry": https://docs.racket-lang.org/guide/intro.html
It is well written and looks very beautiful to me.
On another Scheme, I find Guile docs also great: https://www.gnu.org/software/guile/manual/html_node/index.ht...
They may be a bit more "dry" but they're to the point and very readable! In fact, I think Lisp languages tend to have great documentation.

Gamedev in Lisp. Part 1: ECS and Metalinguistic Abstraction
> the problem with Lisp is that it's sorta bundled with Emacs
What's the problems with Alive, SLT, Slyblime, and Vlime? I mean, I use Emacs, but I was using Emacs before getting into Scheme and CL anyway.
> Every website that teaches Lisp is in ugly HTML+CSS-only style
I dunno, I feel like the Community Spec (<https://cl-community-spec.github.io/pages/index.html>) and the Cookbook (<https://lispcookbook.github.io/cl-cookbook/>) are fine.
> I like the philosophy of (s-exp) but modern lisps have ruined its simplicity for me by introducing additional bracket notations [like this].
Yes, that additional notation is a terrible blight on the perfection that is S-expressions, I wholeheartedly agree.

It's a good book!
Modern companions would be:

A new video about image-based development in Common Lisp (please, turn on EN subs)
Little help to boost your videos: https://lispcookbook.github.io/cl-cookbook/ look at the banner. Cheers.

Good short documentation for CL functions (etc.) available?
For more beginner-friendly, I suggest P. Siebels Practical Common Lisp or The CL Cookbook. Both of those should be available in Emacs info format! If authors are lurking in here :-)

Emacs4CL: A 50 line DIY kit to set up vanilla Emacs for Common Lisp
Yes, indeed. The output of git diff 0.1.0..0.5.0 shows that the bulk of the bloat comes from customising rainbow delimiters to show colourful parentheses.
