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.

I'm working on a file manager with tags, it's in early development and I would love your feedback!
For my personal tool-set, I've settled for "everything in the file name" because in my experience, this ensures that no meta-data gets lost when moving paths, on thumb drives with ancient file systems, OS-borders and so forth (https://github.com/novoid/filetags + other tools + https://karl-voit.at/managing-digital-photographs/ as an overview).

An Alternative to Tabbles [an ALMOST amazing comprehensive file system]
Technically, it makes use of filename-based time-stamps and tags by the "filetags"-method which also includes the rather unique TagTrees feature as one particular retrieval method.

Add and Remove filetags in org-roam
What do you mean by filetags? This?

Describe how would the perfect data hoarding/curating software be for you?
I don't know if this is perfect but for me, this method with its tools is working pretty great since a decade or so: Managing Digital Files (e.g., Photographs) in Files and Folders using filetags (all sorts of things related to tags), guess-filename (generates most file names for me), guess-target-folder and move2archive (moving files to their destination) + some more tools I wrote.

filetags and companions
-
Question about workflow, org-id-get-create, and org-store-link.
filetags and its companion tools is a direct result of my PhD projects with tagstore. For the basic concept of filetags, I worked with file tagging methods for at least six years.

I'm “still afraid to use spaces in file names” years old
I've always thought that personal files, photos, or any other kind of just needed more connections between them to improve my information retrieval experience. That's how I had become a Zettelkasten evangelist. I believed it would be the cure for the information overload disease of our era.
But life made me use Emacs org-mode more and more, and I'm now in love with tags. Retrieving information has become so easy, especially with org-mode's tags inheritance, that I hardly think making connections between headings or notes is necessary anymore[1]. And I believe that applying tags to filenames (a la Karl Voit [2]) will create the same effect
[1] A Zettelkasten-like system is still unbeatable imo when it comes to ideas repositories, i.e. a second brain you can talk to and get new insights. It's just not that great for personal knowledge management or project management.

Tips on organizing files that need to live in multiple locations
Technically, it makes use of filename-based time-stamps and tags by the "filetags"-method which also includes the rather unique TagTrees feature as one particular retrieval method.

Show HN: Khoj – Chat Offline with Your Second Brain Using Llama 2
Might look into some of the tools like novoids Memacs. Notion here is to build tools that push feeds, history data, into Emacs. Using org in your use case with the Khoj tool, could be the "glue" you need to tie it all together. https://github.com/novoid/Memacs#readme.

Multi-Layered Calendars
See the whitepaper, called "What really happened on September 15th 2008? Getting The Most from Your Personal Information with Memacs"[2].
This project is now a little bit dead, but the concept of private data fusion was fantastic, and transformed my view of calendars.
Agree that calendars are a little underused in that way, and would love to see more work towards that private calendar data usage.

Indexing and tagging files: how to do this?
Another method is used via Memacs filename module: it generates a text file with all files that start with a date- or time-stamp. This file can then be used for all sorts of workflows for retrieving files. For example, this is how I include images in my blog using lazyblorg and its "Smart tsfile Image File Search".

Share your folder structure
Renaming files isn't an issue any more once you've started using file file referencing methods that are not prone to changed folder paths (alternative method) or even the basic file name (by using the unchanged first part of the file name as long as it is unique among all indexed files). This way, I really don't care about broken links any more because I don´t get them. But you don't get that freedom with most PIM tools except mine, I'm afraid.

Best practices / examples of using org attach for file management/system.
Yes. AFAIK, it is exactly how Karl Voit uses his file tags. And a lot more: https://github.com/novoid/Memacs

Is there a good list of up-to-date data archiving tools for different websites?
Back to the original question. In order to get as much content as possible into a common format to be displayed in a common temporal view, I've created a framework that consists of some general functionality and a set of modules that deal with different input sources and formats. This project is called Memacs. You can also read a whitepaper about it.

How do you curate your knowledge while browsing the web?
My observation in the last few years here seem to indicate that - not many Emacs users are necessarily into Org mode and this kind of data curation, or atleast that few have very elaborate setups that they have shared. Here's some serious inspiration: https://beepb00p.xyz/myinfra.html, and AFAIK the most comprehensive example out there. For example, there's the Promnesia package by the same author (https://github.com/karlicoss/promnesia) which I used for awhile and its cool ! There's also Karl Voit's Memacs https://github.com/novoid/Memacs/ (which appears mentioned in the previous link).
