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.

[ANN] yabridge 4.0, with chainloading, an overhauled backend, and many user experience improvements
On the backend side, a lot has changed. The biggest change is that the dependency on Boost has been completely removed, and everything has been reworked accordingly. This should make packaging easier, as yabridge now no longer depends on any system library other than the basic libraries needed to interact with X11. Some parts of Boost have been replaced by other headers-only libraries, while other parts now simply use custom implementations. All of this is explained in more detail in the 'Packaging notes' section of the changelog. Yabridgectl also lost its dependency on winedump, at least in most cases. It now tries to parse plugin libraries directly using the goblin binary parsing library. This should also speed up the syncing process. I did, however, run into one plugin that this new parser couldn't handle. If that happens then winedump will still be used instead.

Crash reporting in Rust
For now the minidump creation is a fairly faithful port of the Breakpad code, but like I said some of that code is really old, so there's probably cases where taking a step back and rethinking the approach based on new kernel or OS capabilities or, instead of recreating process snapshotting for each non-Windows, just have a really good parser for each OSes crash format that does a transform. Rust is a fantastic language for writing those kinds of parsers, so that would definitely be an interesting avenue to investigate, especially since in the Linux case a lot of groundwork has already been done by goblin.
