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 culmination of several months of work by dozens of people, Flatpak 1.14.0 is now out!
There used to be a project called ginstall.sh that kept like, a manually maintained database of various projects with static binaries and how to install them. It still exists, but maintenance stopped because its model was also not sustainable. Its use case is better covered by tools like asdf, stew, and if you want to get even simpler, eget.

Asdf Performance
I'm a huge fan of asdf and have been using for years together with direnv! It's great to see how much effort is put into it! I hope more people adopt it so that we don't have to `curl | sh`! One thing I have issues with asdf is security as are no checksums, so, you if I project get compromised you'll get compromised, too. This, of course, is in addition to the third-party asdf plugin getting itself compromised (which is the greater risk). Last, but not least - I wish asdf came with something like eget [0] incorporated so that it can install 99% of the plugins directly and safely! Last, but not least - 99% of the plugins have almost identical code and all that changes is the repo, so, this should be generalized. For example, many years ago I made just one codebase of all HashiCorp plugins [1] and it's been working great!

What are some of the more innovative linux distributions?
Fedora Silverblue - pretty well-known at this point, but it’s championing immutability

Couldn't have said it better!

Been away from Linux for many years
An example of an installable immutable OS is Fedora Silverblue. Notably, you can change the "distro" flavor of Silverblue to try out KDE and then just flip back to Gnome. Each change is seen as an "update" that just moves you over to the new GUI. The article below explains a bit more.

I need something stable in my life...
I guess something like Fedora Silverblue might offer you something (to paraphrase) "stupid proof". For example, in this case the rpm-ostree rollback command would have been sufficient. Disclaimer: rpm-ostree builds images, therefore it's by necessity slower than apt. Futhermore, until this change is merged and deployed you'd have to reboot for the changes to apply. You might want to look into Distrobox as well, perhaps it can solve your problems without having to change your distro.

Nobara is letting me down lately.
However, I'll add one more that I'm especially fond of. It's one of the most 'stable'\1]) Linux desktop systems\2]) without sacrificing access to the latest kernel-updates and packages. It comes bundled with everything\3]) necessary for productivity right out of the box and is built on top of the fundamentals laid by Fedora's Immutable Desktops. Allow me to introduce uBlue; I know that I'll undersell it regardless, so I recommend you to check the provided link instead.
