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.

Getting things done (in small increments)
Yeah, I worry about that too. I have SO much of my stuff dependent on my GitHub account now.
I'm slightly reassured by how useful their APIs are. I have automated exports of a lot of my GitHub issues, though I really should shore those up and make sure I'm capturing everything.
That's one of the reasons I built https://github.com/dogsheep/github-to-sqlite

Automating screenshots for the Datasette documentation using shot-scraper
I have trouble answering this question myself, and I created it!
The problem I have is that it can be applied to too many different problems.
I personally have used it for the following (a truncated summary):
- Publishing data online to allow other people to explore it, for example https://scotrail.datasette.io and https://russian-ira-facebook-ads.datasettes.com/
- Building websites, by combining it with custom templates. https://datasette.io and https://www.niche-museums.com and https://til.simonwillison.net are three examples
- Building my own combined search engine over a bunch of different data. https://github-to-sqlite.dogsheep.net is this for my GitHub issues and commits and issue comments across 100+ projects
- Similarly, building a code search engine across multiple repos (partly to demonstrate how far you can go with custom plugins): https://ripgrep.datasette.io
- Any time I have a CSV file I open it in the Datasette Desktop macOS app first to start exploring it: https://datasette.io/desktop
- As a prototyping tool. It's the fastest way I know of to get from some data files (CSV or JSON) to a working JSON API - and a GraphQL API too using this plugin: https://datasette.io/plugins/datasette-graphql
- Messing around with geospatial data - here's a write-up of my favourite experiment with that so far: https://simonwillison.net/2021/Jan/24/drawing-shapes-spatial...
This is a bewilderingly wide array of things! And I keep on finding new problems I can apply it to:
Of course, if all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. But thanks to the plugin system (and the amazing flexibility of SQLite under the good) I can reshape my hammer into all sorts of interesting shapes!
I've been trying to capture some of this at https://datasette.io/for
This is one of my biggest marketing challenges for the project though. If someone asks you for an elevator pitch you need to do better than spending 15 minutes talking through a wide ranging bulleted list!

Any tools for cloning github repos with revision?
You might also want to look at https://github.com/dogsheep/github-to-sqlite for saving issues, pull-requests, etc

I created Scrumdog – a program to download Jira Issues to a local database
Thanks for letting me know - fixed that here: https://github.com/dogsheep/github-to-sqlite/issues/74

Store SQLite in Cloudflare Durable Objects
My application Datasette can serve this need: https://datasette.io/
Lots of live demos - two of my favourites are https://github-to-sqlite.dogsheep.net/ and https://global-power-plants.datasettes.com/

sqlite-utils - my Python library and CLI tool for manipulating SQLite databases
I've been using the sqlite_utils Python library to build a whole suite of tools for importing data from various different sources into SQLite, including healthkit-to-sqlite, swarm-to-sqlite, twitter-to-sqlite, inaturalist-to-sqlite, google-takeout-to-sqlite, github-to-sqlite, genome-to-sqlite, pocket-to-sqlite, hacker-news-to-sqlite, evernote-to-sqlite.

GitHub is reporting service degradation
If you need a way to automate repository backups, I like gickup.
- Automated git-mirror of selected repositories?
-
Gire - a self-hosted Git mirroring/backup service
How does it compare to Gickup?
-
Backup and archive Git repositories
Any good apps out there? I only know this one gickup, but documentation is pretty much inexistent and don't seem to understand where stuff is cloned into

I wrote a CLI utility for backing up your github data, including repos, issues, PRs and releases
I use gickup (GitHub, Docker Hub) because I configure it and then it's automated. Backups that run automatically are so much more valuable than a manual backup solution. If you have to run it manually, you'll forget to do it, and then the whole point of backups are lost.

You might also find gickup useful if you wish to automate the process a bit.

- Clone all starred Repos and their changes
What are some alternatives?
