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.

Flent: The FLExible Network Tester
> https://speed.cloudflare.com
Love this. I'm used to use speedtest.net back in the day, but this is so much better in so many ways and provides so much more data.

Unbloating the Buffers
Followup: I just tested OpenWrt 23.05.2 + luci-app-sqm + cake with https://speed.cloudflare.com/
With the limit set to 1 Mbps (1000/1000), my upload latency dropped from 80ms to 25ms, but speed was hard-limited to 1000/1000. With the limit rasied to 1G/1G, cake stopped working and my upload latency returned to 80ms.
So I stand by my original comment. You still have to configure the speed limits manually.

Issues with Fibre internet immediately after starting service
This is helpful, thank you. We weren't expecting anything being routed through a wall, just a longer cable. Speeds right next to the router on my phone were still like 20Mbps. I will try creating the two networks and seeing if that helps, though I still think there is something wrong with how it was set up. I've been using cloudflare (https://speed.cloudflare.com) for the tests which is in Mbps.

Release Notes for 12/6/2023
What packet loss are you experiencing? Are you on wifi? If you do this test, do you see any packet loss here too?
- What could possibly be causing this, I'm clueless

Steam Deck slow download speed ONLY with Steam
There's nothing wrong with router or my internet connection, as I mentioned before I tried to download different files through browser and got expected speeds. Services like https://speed.cloudflare.com or https://www.speedtest.net return expected speeds of 500-600 Mbit/s (tried different servers)

Powerline VS Mesh WiFi
I was semi-OK with the Powerlines, but the speed lose (I have 1 gigabit by my ISP, yeah, 300Mbps are all needed usually, but something itched me about losing speed just because; also, I wanted something a little more future-proof than being limited to 250-300Mbps top). Also, speed.cloudflare.com was giving me "Average"/"Good" results and IDK why, because using ethernet, my connection was always "Great"

Speed Test
> which is more reflective of real world video conferencing use cases
What's more reflective of real world use cases is a hot discussion topic. :)
The networkQuality tool on macOS and other implementations(1) of the "RPM" algorithm(2) are very good to see how an Internet connection behaves under high stress. But the real world is seldom high stress (100Mbps+ connections are rarely pushed to the limit, honestly).
In your example, video conferencing indeed does simulataneous upload and download, but it's also low bandwidth (relatively speaking) and doesn't usually come close to saturating a connection. It can impacted by other traffic in the same connection though.
Neither networkQuality nor Cloudflare's speed test measure how a connection behaves with multiple users stressing a connection, which is another example of why this is a hot topic.

Diving into a secret macOS tool – networkQuality
Apple's "networkQuality" tool (or the open source alternative that you can run in other operating systems: https://github.com/network-quality/goresponsiveness) is very useful to understand how your connection behaves under extreme conditions, but extreme conditions is not something a home connections sees regularly, so make sure to use a combination of tools if you want to understand your home connection behaves under expected use.
It's more of an art than a science, really, and your ISP may be optimizing for more average use cases.
Personally I like to start with a regular web-based speed test (I'm biased towards https://speed.cloudflare.com, but any test that shows latency under load is OK, like https://www.waveform.com/tools/bufferbloat or https://fast.com[1]) and then combine it with "networkQuality" running concurrently (if possible, from a different host) and see how it impacts the numbers.
Of course, this only makes sense if you, for example, have your own router running OpenWRT where you can enable active queue management (SQM/AQM) where you can actually do something to improve the results.
[1] In more recent times I'm finding fast.com to be a bit unreliable, as some ISPs may treat Netflix traffic specially (like allowing for longer bursts over contracted speeds, etc. — net neutrality notwithstanding).
