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.

When URL parsers disagree (CVE-2023-38633, librsvg)
Thank you for releasing it! I adopted wirefilter for a firewall rule testing project, firewalker [1]. But indeed, I wish Cloudflare kept maintaining its OSS version.

Cool URIs can be ugly
Semicolon (;) has no special meaning in a URL. You can ascribe it a meaning in your particular routing, but the spec has nothing to say about it.

It's not insurmountable absolutely and I would appreciate it absolutely.

URL Explained – The Fundamentals
For the query portion, it really depends if your are reading it server side or client side and using the WHATWG standard[0] which itself just mirrors convention. However, the standard dictating how a URL might be formed does not mandate anything about the query string that makes it parsable.

When URL parsers disagree (CVE-2023-38633, librsvg)
Browsers have discrepancies too of course. Here's an interesting Chromium bug I've been following: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=125253... and an associated WHATWG discussion: https://github.com/whatwg/url/issues/606
Some multiple examples of browsers disagreeing: https://www.yagiz.co/url-parsing-and-browser-differences

Just fighting URLSearchParams and wonder if anyone uses iterators IRL and what I do miss
What's imho missing is a size or count method. The reason they don't have one yet is because it's not clear whether it should be all tuples, or all keys. Discussion

Open source sustainment and the future of Gitea
Well, [text](href) is just a lousy syntax. Quite apart from how easy it is to forget which way round it is, the way round that it is is syntactically inferior: the parentheses are URL code points <https://url.spec.whatwg.org/#url-code-points>, so URL encoding won’t percent-encode parentheses, so Markdown doesn’t actually support all valid URLs, leading to injection attacks if all you do is regular URL encoding, deliberate or accidental, and deciding where an href ends is troublesome and inconsistent, with some Markdown implementations terminating at any right parenthesis, and others trying to match parentheses as a heuristic that helps most cases. The other way round, with the href in square brackets, would have been better in this regard, as square brackets aren’t URL code points, and thus will be percent-encoded. But better still would have been to lean on angle brackets more, matching long-held custom and the other style of links Markdown already uses (just plain ). In my own lightweight markup language that I’ve been working on for a while and am now polishing up and implementing properly, I’m currently using [text ]. [text] is also quite tempting, with slightly different trade-offs.
(When I speak of the details of URL encoding and which characters get percent-encoded, these things weren’t quite so clearly-defined back in 2004 as they are now, but I believe it was all still true.)
