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 far did my post go on the Fediverse?
If you're interested in an ActivityPub that works like that, I work on one called FedBOX[1]. It doesn't have clients at the moment, but that's how I planned to have it used.

I Wrote an Activitypub Server in OCaml: Lessons Learnt, Weekends Lost
Well, there is one already as the reference implementation for a suite of libraries I wrote. You can find it at https://github.com/go-ap/fedbox. (Contributions welcome)

We need a textodon (text-only Fediverse hub)
Also my project, mentioned elsewhere in the thread: https://github.com/go-ap/fedbox, supports filesystem storage directly.

Go-Fed: ActivityPub in Go
Hi, I'm the developer of go-ap. Which parts of it are giving you trouble? I'm always open to answer questions to the project's mailing list: https://lists.sr.ht/~mariusor/activitypub-go
There is a rather hidden wiki that has some more information than strictly the comments in the code: https://man.sr.ht/~mariusor/go-activitypub/
If you are looking for examples, there is a reference server at https://github.com/go-ap/fedbox

Gophers on Mastodon
There is a Go implementation of a generic ActivityPub service. I am actively working on it as we speak: https://github.com/go-ap/fedbox. (You can see a demo instance of it at https://federated.id)

First release of LemmyBB, a federated bulletin board written in Rust
That's pretty cool actually. I've been tossing around the idea of a federating forum style UX that uses ActivityPub, and I figured it would be easy using something like this https://github.com/go-ap/fedbox
I don't know how many generic AP backend servers are out there, but it looks like Lemmy is becoming one. I hope they keep with the AP spec and allow any functionality in addition to it to be modular.

Mastodon.technology Is Shutting Down
> What we really need in this landscape is dead simple services.
I'm working on exactly that: a service that acts as an ActivityPub server (code[1], example[2], example application running on top of it[3]) for users in the form of a static binary. It supports multiple storage backends that can be selected individually or all together at build time and it can be extended to many more.

Don't Use Discord as a Forum
I'm not familiar with the codebase, but from my understanding it saves messages in a database [1], then periodically send out a formatted email to people who subscribed to the thread/group [2]
Anyone can post on the forum, you just have to provide an email address (you don't have to register, but you can enforce it)

Why Did Usenet Fail?
This website is powered by DFeed, an NNTP / mailing list web frontend / forum software, news aggregator and IRC bot. DFeed was written mostly by Vladimir Panteleev. The source code is available under the GNU Affero General Public License on GitHub: https://github.com/CyberShadow/DFeed

[META] Like Rationalists Leaving A . . .
What I would really, really like in any forum software is an NNTP bridge. Ideally bidirectional, but at least readable via NNTP. So far, the only one I've seen is https://forum.dlang.org/ with actual code at https://github.com/CyberShadow/DFeed .
