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.

GNOME 44
> it supports my keystrokes
You know that there is basically a standard set, imposed by Windows in about 1986 or something and also supported in GNOME 2, MATE, Xfce, LXDE, etc etc.? I am more interested in if it supports them. I mean, I don't know what your set are, and I am not for a moment saying there's anything wrong with them, but there are standards for this stuff, used heavily by millions of blind computer users for example.
> Have you considered the possibility you are so set in your ways that you are neglecting new and useful tool?
Could be. I am a professional assessor of, and commentator on, this stuff, though.
I mainly use a desktop I switched to in 2011. :-) Before that, I changed in 2004, after a change in 2001, after a change in 1995, after a change in 1992, after one in 1989, etc. etc.
I mean I am an old pharte, fair call, but I am a reasonably adaptable one, I think. :-D
What is "fzy"?

> Then make the panel vertical instead of horizontal
Why don't any of the screenshots show that, then?
I see 6 horizontal panels in the screenies on the homepage and Github, and one with none. From that, I don't think it's unreasonable to conclude this is not a core feature or something.

Your favourite Rust CLI utilities this year?
I've been mostly using fzy which is written in C. I hope skim's matching algorithm is as good as fzy's…

is there any reason why i had been blocked from a github repository for opening a issue about activity?
At the time of writing of this comment, the commit history shows that the latest commit 9aa19d3 was added on Jan 23, 2022, so I'd argue that changes are still being made, just at a slower pace.

fussy: A completion-style/fuzzy matching/scoring system for fido/icomplete/selectrum/vertico/ivy/helm/default completion systems [with flx, fzf, skim scoring backends]
https://github.com/jhawthorn/fzy/tree/master/src We'd just need to write a c binding to it similar to fzf-native but I don't know if anyone will be motivated enough to do it. Should take an afternoon for anyone interested and want to plug it into fussy.

telescope: which extension are you using? fzf-native or fzy-native?
Fzy claims to have a more refined algorithm so I switched to the telescope plugin to see if I noticed a difference before I switched my whole shell to use it. I found the native plugin to actually make my telescope unstable and lock up the editor, requiring me to nuke the entire shell so I'm back at fzf native. I'm actually planning to try telescope native since they apparently just merged a massive performance PR.

Looking for a neat Neovim config for wilder.nvim
A while ago there was a post on this sub about a plugin called wilder.nvim which looks absolutely awesome. Wilder seems super configurable and it's README has a bunch of different suggested configurations. However, it is designed to work with both Vim and Neovim, but does have a config for Neovim, but it depends on kinda odd plugins like cpsm (which uses ctrlp.vim) as well as fzy.

Johnny Decimal: A System to Organize Projects
A past coworker implemented a system like this. It was awful. He was the gatekeeper because the numbers and names had to be "just so" to meet his approval, and he was the most senior person on the team. He was neurotic in general and a pain to work with.
The idea of limiting yourself to a few top-level categories in a directory hierarchy and then doing the same with subdirectories makes sense, but adding numbers is a bad idea. It just creates more work, and other people have to learn your idiosyncratic nomenclature. Just give the directories good names and get on with it. Search really isn't as bad as the article suggests, especially with something like broot [1].

Antonmedv/walk: Terminal file manager
I've used a lot of the tools mentioned here in comments, but I think just for finding a directory/file broot[1] is much faster and easier than others. Though it is also quite feature rich but mostly it's just write a fuzzy search term that could even be sub-sub-directory and open, extremely quickly.

Projectable: A TUI file manager built for projects
`broot` (https://github.com/Canop/broot) is another file manager with a curious interface that seems to fill a similar niche.
Of course, there are many other file managers to choose from (mc, ranger, nnn, lf, ....), but most of them don't show nested subdirectories by default.

Report on platform-compliance for cargo directories
As a macOS user, it boils my brain whenever I've to type in something like ~/Library/Application Support/org.rust-lang.Cargo/config.toml. macOS users have been begging CLI tools to support XDG variables on macOS too. Setting defaults is a strong indication to the community what should be the "preferred" locations. The defaults defined in your article will invariably lead to some authors saying that if that path is good enough for cargo, then it is good enough for their tool. Even the latest draft RFC acknowledges that macOS should use XDG variables too. I've written more about this here.

bsdutils: Alternative to GNU coreutils using software from FreeBSD
I think you’re conflating different projects.
There are projects that aim for a better user experience, with better command line interface, defaults, performance and UI. These are of course breaking changes and the programs can’t be used as drop in replacement. Some examples are
- ls => exa (https://github.com/ogham/exa)
- grep => ripgrep (https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep)
- cat => bat (https://github.com/sharkdp/bat)
- tree => broot (https://github.com/Canop/broot)
The person you’re replying to was speaking of a different project - uutils (https://github.com/uutils/coreutils). These are drop in replacements with identical interfaces (modulo bugs).
