The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
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.

GaryOS
The https://github.com/garybgenett/gary-os#licensing section is interesting.

Is anyone running a desktop/laptop OS in RAM?
Playing around with Porteus, AntiX & Alpine on older and resource restricted hardware and stuff like GaryOS has got me thinking a modern x86_64 or aarch64 system with 64gb ram or more could easily accommodate a desktop system with plenty ram to spare for running. Porteus is ~300mb, AntiX ~5gb and Alpine a little more for an xorg desktop system. Standard install for most Linux systems seems to be below 32gb.
-
Switching Distro with commands.
GaryOS seems worth a mention, it can rebuild and replace itself which is quite cool.
- Ventoy as a boot manager?
- In theory, could you compile all of the libraries required to run a Linux environment into a single, massive .so file?
-
How would you go on to make your own Linux OS
GaryOS might be worth a look.

After tens of hours and a numerous amount of coffee, I proudly did it
You reminded me for trying Oasis: https://github.com/oasislinux/oasis

Idea: Steam should delete all native Linux ports from its library to prevent ABI breakage issues and SteamOS should be made into a statically linked OS
IMO, would eliminate issues with glibc and other libraries breaking ABI compatibility. Statically-linked distros like oasis could be used as inspiration.

An estimation of what distros and desktops have the largest userbase?
Oasis and its native desktop Velox.

Compile webkit2gtk to be as minimal as possable.
I wonder why suckless team chose to build its browser on webkit2gtk instead of NetSurf, things like these and others like their adherence to Xorg makes me think seriously to move to Framebuffer (fbpad, fbpdf, fbff ..) or Oasis (Wayland + SWC + Velox).

Are Hoistings Possible for C++?
When you say a fork of LLVM, am I correct in assuming that you specifically mean a fork of Clang? I don't see how the compiler backend would affect support for language extensions, regardless of whether it's an exception to that such as Tcc, Cproc, the MIR C jitter, lacc, 8cc, 9cc, and chibicc. Most of those are not for production, excluding Cproc and Tcc (at least according to Suckless or Oasis).
