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 FBI Identified a Tor User
From a technological point of view, TOR still has a couple of flaws which make it vulnerable to the metadata logging systems of ISPs:
- it needs a trailing non-zero buffer, randomized by the size of the payload, so that stream sizes and durations don't match
- it needs a request scattering feature, so that the requests for a specific website don't get proxied through the same nodes/paths
- it needs a failsafe browser engine, which doesn't give a flying damn about WebRTC and decides to actively drop features.
- it needs to stop monkey-patching out ("stubbing") the APIs that are compromising user privacy, and start removing those features.
I myself started a WebKit fork a while ago but eventually had to give up due to the sheer amount of work required to maintain such an engine project. I called it RetroKit [1], and I documented what kind of features in WebKit were already usable for tracking and had to be removed.
I'm sorry to be blunt here, but all that user privacy valueing electron bullshit that uses embedded chrome in the background doesn't cut it anymore. And neither does Firefox that literally goes rogue in an endless loop of requests when you block their tracking domains. The config settings in Firefox don't change shit anymore, and it will keep requesting the tracking domains. It does it also in Librefox and all the *wolf profile variants, just use a local eBPF firewall to verify. I added my non-complete opensnitch ruleset to my dotfiles for others to try out. [3]
If I would rewrite a browser engine today, I'd probably go for golang. But golang probably makes handling arbitrary network data a huge pain, so it's kinda useless for failsafe html5 parsing.

What cool things have you done with your .bashrc?
Added lots of other helper methods, mostly for the shitty kind of CLI tools like yt-dlp, wget, tar, etc. My PS1 is a little more complex because I'm using emojis in the Terminal to represent states of repositories and to shorten the base paths. My complete bashrc is here if you're curious.

How safe is it to publish dotfiles?
Personally I decided to have my dotfiles being not a git repo of the actual dotfiles, but more like a quick bootstrapping framework with the idea that the install process can be run repeatedly and incrementally without fucking already "patched" config files up.

[Question] What are the best plugins for zsh ?
I use about 12 plugins, most of which I've written myself.
-
Is there a vim mode for zsh ?
bindkey -v is a builtin starting place, but there's a lot of extra bindings you can add to make it more like Vim. Personally, I've written a few plugins which make up the difference I want, and a few more personal bindings besides.

Any tip on optimizing this?
Here's my script. It forks off a playerctl --follow with a custom format to work around read skipping empty items (like a song without an artist). You don't have to do that, I just prefer that so I can add nwg-wrapper to view album art and song title on my desktop without spinning up another playerctl read loop.

How do you keep your install clean?
Any config I write, I add to my dotfiles repo. Then I can clone it down whenever I'm setting up a new machine/reinstall

exec <application> -> size and position?
I wrote this script to run an arbitrary command when the provided app's window appears.

Custom mediaplayer.py for Waybar (working with & and "No media playing" status)
Watch out for < and > too. Playerctl's command-line has specifiers for {{markup_escape(title)}}, I use it my playerctl segment. Here's how it looks with the custom CSS.
