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.

How to build GUI for custom LCD screen connected to an Arduino Board?
Even if one used embedded-graphics, which would't require a line buffer, 8k is probably not enough RAM for the stack of a non-trivial Rust program. At least my even fairly simple RTIC programs that run fine in the 160k of a Feather M4 do not run at all in the 32k of a Feather M0.

New crate for embedded-graphics: U8g2-fonts (feedback desired)
I rewrote the font subsystem of U8g2 in pure Rust, introducing a large number of fonts to embedded-graphics.

Debian Running on Rust Coreutils
We use it a bit for https://github.com/embedded-graphics/embedded-graphics and I have to say I love it. It's just the right balance between configuration variables/constants and "a folder full of bash scripts". I highly recommend giving Just a try.

why GNU grep is fast
For things that are commonly and almost-ideally represented as text files, there’s a lot of Rust based alternatives are faster and have more features than the old unix/GNU tools: ripgrep, fd, cw, and you can find more in this list.

How to learn Rust by own tiny applications?
A lot of unix-y tools have been rewritten in rust, where the usefulness comes from it being faster or having more features. Examples: bat, cw, lsd, ripgrep, diskonaut, gping. Maybe you could find an interesting program to rewrite?

Debian Running on Rust Coreutils
Having written a Rust wc implementation a few years ago (https://github.com/Freaky/cw), I had a look at theirs.
It's pretty naive - a simple linewise read_until loop, a conditional to avoid word splitting and such if it's not needed, and for some reason it collects results into an array and prints when it's done rather than printing as it goes.
It doesn't support --files0-from like GNU wc, so isn't a drop-in replacement from that perspective. It also has the sadly common Rust trope of only supporting filenames that are valid UTF-8.
It doesn't seem overly slow considering its simplicity - usually trading blows with GNU and BSD wc. Perhaps the most glaring omission is the lack of a fast path for -c, which should reduce to a stat() call. Also unfortunate not to use the excellent bytecount crate to provide a very fast -l/m path.
The read_until loop also makes its memory use unpredictable compared with other wc's. If you run it on /dev/zero it will try to eat your computer.
