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.

Nolibc: A minimal C-library replacement shipped with the kernel
The article goes into some detail about different reasons you might want a minimal userland -- test harnesses, recovery environments, and pseudo-embedded environments. I do something similar in the test framework for https://github.com/jmillikin/rust-fuse -- to perform an integration test, I boot Linux in QEMU with a tiny custom /init.
More generally, the Linux kernel has a lot of code in it that is of generally reasonable quality and has received a lot of benchmarking/testing from well-resourced users. Sure, I could run some unikernel with a third-party network stack and SCSI drivers and ext4 implementation, but Linux already has all that stuff and it's ubiquitous. Why would I care about the extra ~30 MiB of RAM or whatever that it takes?
And that's before we even get to the topic of sharing code between environments. I can run the same unmodified binary on my desktop and on a minimal kernel-only Linux, which is not generally true of most alternative kernels.
What are some alternatives?
nix - Rust friendly bindings to *nix APIs
nrfs - Filesystem with compression, encryption, CoW and error detection
notify - 🔠Cross-platform filesystem notification library for Rust.
liblinux - Linux system calls.
notify - A dead simple Go library for sending notifications to various messaging services.
gcsf - a FUSE file system based on Google Drive
mountpoint-s3 - A simple, high-throughput file client for mounting an Amazon S3 bucket as a local file system.
inotify-rs - Idiomatic inotify wrapper for the Rust programming language
catfs - Cache AnyThing filesystem written in Rust
tifs - A distributed POSIX filesystem based on TiKV, with partition tolerance and strict consistency.
