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.

9 Things You Didn't Know About Decentralized Identifiers
In 1994, Tim Berners Lee, the creator of the World Wide Web, founded the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). The W3C is made up of groups of people focused on setting the best practices and standards for building the web. For example, the W3C develops and maintains standards for HTML, CSS, Web Accessibility, and Web Security. In July 2022, The W3C officially published standards for Decentralized Identifiers. This way, technologists would have blueprint for building and managing digital identity as we make the shift towards controlling your identity on the internet. Check out the Decentralized Identifiers specification here.

Understanding Decentralized Identifiers for 10-year-olds
A few months ago, I started looking into decentralization on the web and how this could impact our world as we know it today - thanks to Web5 and our work at TBD. One of the biggest and most important pillars in achieving this decentralized future is called Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs).

Poll: Only 16% of Americans Support the Government Issuing a Central Bank Digital Currency
I'm also a software engineer, and I'm actively working on making it a thing in a parallel system (referenced above) lol. DIDs have been a standard for a while, and as someone who's had my SIN compromised (by Equifax of all places), our current way of handling ID is far easier to hack than a well implemented digital ID would be. Its actually asinine to me that I was compromised in 2016, and DID existed then... yet here we are 7 years later, with identity thefts only climbing year-over-year, and we still have antiquated, and clearly failing identity systems in place.

Official /r/rust "Who's Hiring" thread for job-seekers and job-offerers [Rust 1.70]
DESCRIPTION: We are looking for a Rust developer to join the team developing a cross-platform digital identity application using the Tauri framework and several (cloud-based) Rust components for Identity-as-a-Service solutions. We are a young start-up that is developing digital identity products and solutions for people and organizations, based on the decentralized identity standards. Our work includes developing open-source implementations of standards such as DID and Verifiable Credentials from W3C and OpenID4VC from the OpenID Foundation. Using this technology, people gain control over their own digital identities and data and can easily share verifiable information with third parties, enabling more privacy and digital trust.

Privatizing Our Digital Identities
What do you think about Decentralized Identity (DIDs - https://www.w3.org/TR/did-core/)? With it, you can have several identities and easily generate new ones when needed (but you probably need to have a single, government-recognized identity for the real world).
Europe seems to be working hard on establishing an identity for every citizen: https://commission.europa.eu/strategy-and-policy/priorities-... (most countries already have that, but this is about unifying the various countries' ID systems).

Domain Names as Handles in Bluesky
Domain names as handles are a cool idea, and you can already do a variant of them in the "fediverse" either by hosting your own instance of a service or by configuring a WebFinger alias (which is what I do).
I'm less convinced by DIDs[1], which is what Bluesky seems to run on: I've yet to see an explanation for why the DID standard exists, given that it effectively punts all semantics (including basic things like cryptographic verification) onto unstandardized "methods" in an uncontrolled global namespace.

Can Siacoin/Skynet host websites?
Yes: https://docs.siasky.net

How to be prepared for a web3 world?
Depends on the application. You can launch a client rendered website on Skynet with great ease. Literally drag and drop your web app and its deployed on a decentralized network. Then just setup domain pointers HNS, ENS and your good to go.

“With HTTP, you search for locations. With IPFS, you search for content.”
https://siasky.net/ and https://docs.siasky.net/
IPFS has chosen an architecture which fundamentally keeps it non-performant, Skynet is built from the ground up in a different way, and gets 10-100x improvements on performance for content-addressed links, and 100-1000x improvements on performance for dynamic lookups (IPNS)

How can one use Skynet directly? Not through a portal
From a developer's guide on how to operate a portal:
What are some alternatives?
specification - Solid Technical Reports
skynet-cli - a lightweight cli to interact with Skynet
didkit - A cross-platform toolkit for decentralized identity.
Peergos - A p2p, secure file storage, social network and application protocol
Specification - Base class with tests for adding specifications to a DDD model
luds - lnurl specifications
iiab - Internet-in-a-Box - Build your own LIBRARY OF ALEXANDRIA with a Raspberry Pi !
hcxdumptool - Small tool to capture packets from wlan devices.
Go IPFS - IPFS implementation in Go [Moved to: https://github.com/ipfs/kubo]
