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.

Vulnerability found affecting System.Data.SqlClient in Microsoft .Net (Framework, Core, 5/6)
I don't think that works. That would alert you about the security alerts on the Security tab of the dotnet/announcements repo, which are empty, not about issues that contain information about .Net security issues.

Situation right now
Yeah, it's a fun meme, but there have been a few nasty RCE vulnerabilities patched on .NET Core in the last couple years. Like this one: https://github.com/dotnet/announcements/issues/178

.NET Core 2.1 container images were deleted from Docker Hub!
If you started receiving errors when pulling old versions of dotnet docker images (like the .NET 2.1), it's because Microsoft deleted them from Docker Hub on August 21st, 2021. That date is not a coincidence, the .NET Core 2.1 reached end of support in the same date. For more details take a look at the official dotnet announcement or also the dotnet blog. In my case, the error bellow was thrown in the stdout when pulling the microsoft/dotnet:2.2-aspnetcore-runtime image:

Are you using .NET on Arch Linux? Is the experience good?
I'm not entirely sure what that means. We're done porting .NET Framework APIs to .NET Core / .NET 5. .NET Framework is what it is now, and .NET is moving forward with .NET 6+. If it is worth porting your code to .NET 6, it is. If not, then it isn't. Both can be good choices. .NET Core on Linux, however, is absolutely not preview.

The search for easier safe systems programming
WPF is not the best example of open source, as some components are still closed source. Though it only runs on Windows, a closed source operating system, so perhaps that is not so important.

That said, there are cross platform, open source .NET UI frameworks out there, including one that is inspired by WPF:

Industrial Controller? Windows or Linux?
You might also want to look at AvaloniaUI[0] for a cross platform .NET GUI library. It is similar to WPF but much nicer to work with.

AvaloniaUI: Create Multi-Platform Apps with .NET
Production user here. There's no money gotchas. They're above reproach. In fact, I've received considerable free support from their devs on GitHub Issues [1].
The Avalonia business model is based on selling XPF, which runs WPF (Windows-only) apps on other platforms. That's very interesting to big corps with existing codebases.

.NET on Linux: What a Contrast
Yes, but the portable GUI frameworks by Microsoft themselves are generally not very good, and they tend to be abandoned after a couple of years.
Avalonia is developed outside of the Microsoft corporate madness and seems to be slowly becoming the defacto cross-platform framework because it is expected to last a bit longer than a manager's attention span: https://avaloniaui.net/

Ask HN: Do you have a problem you'd pay to have taken away?
Not my comment, but relevant here "The problem with compiling Skia to WASM is you'll lose any benefits of hardware graphics acceleration on the device."

.NET 8 – .NET Blog
It's a bit of a hit and miss as of today. CLI, back-end and natively compiled libraries (think dll/so/dylib or even .lib/.a - you can statically link NAOT binaries into other "unmanaged" code) work best, GUI - requires more work.
Avalonia[0] and MAUI[1] have known working templates with it, but YMMV.
