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.

Audacity 3.4 – New Musical Features
The contents are rendered through gtk/cairo which not only goes through https://www.xquartz.org/ but also doesn't use GPU rendering (it was experimental 3 years ago, maybe better now). The main issue seems to be that neither Inkscape nor gtk people have much low level Darwin experts or time available to invest in debugging the whole rendering stack. See for example https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/1614 and all the other referenced issues for all the gory details.

Inkscape launches version 1.3 with a focus on organizing work efficiently
There's a year old issue https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/3227 with no visible progress and a medium priority label. I hope it gets more dev focus soon.
- New Inkscape commit will refresh your font list when a new one is installed!

Node duplication [help]
Here's a bug report related to this. Also here's a video of this bug with the oldest version of Inkscape that I still have lying around (0.94.2 i.e. 2019, but it's likely the bug is even older than that), and a similar thread on here from more than two years ago.

The checkmark of the page grid button is reversed. Is this a bug?
Yes. Only in specific circumstances, though. It's not really that big of a deal.

Is there a way to snap object handles to paths/nodes? For example, I have a circle arc, and I want the arc to end on a path; but when I drag it it won't snap.
Arc handles can't be snapped and it's a known issue. It seems like you're using guides, though, so you can just double click the guide to get its angle and manually enter it as the 'Start' or 'End' angle in the toolbar.
-
[Help] How can I make CTRL + ALT + V work?
This is a known issue. It seems like it's related to a new setting that was added in recent versions. In the preferences under 'Behavior → Selecting' disable 'Paste above selection instead of layer-top' to get the old, non-buggy behavior back.

what is going on here
See the ASCII table at https://www.rapidtables.com/code/text/ascii-table.html. Have seen it happen in Inkscape on Windows, too: https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4071

Safe Terminal Escape Codes
Based on my (limited) understanding of Kitty's image protocol[0] (a.k.a the "Terminal graphics protocol") video support could be potentially implemented via multiple approaches, including at least:
(1) Draw image repeatedly using the "don't move cursor" cursor movement policy[1a][1b].
(2) Draw image replacing an existing image with the same id.
(3) Use animation configured to use "loading mode"[2] ("in this mode when reaching the last frame, instead of looping, the terminal will wait for the arrival of more frames").
An actual terminal graphics/image protocol enables some IMO[3] pretty cool possibilities:
* A while back I implemented a proof-of-concept that displayed a simple interactive egui (a Rust immediate mode GUI project) GUI within WezTerm via the protocol.
* Later I discovered someone had gone as far as making a port[5] of the OpenGL gears demo to kitty terminal graphics protocol.
* And there's even a "full graphical web browser for Kitty terminal with mouse and keyboard support"[6][7].

[3] I'm aware that not everyone will think static or dynamic image display is something a terminal "should do" but to me it seems better to have actual image support in terminals rather than use (already currently used) existing "hacks" that provide a poor facsimile of support[4].
[4] Then again, I'm also of the opinion[4a] that perhaps terminals should support actual graphical UIs rather than the poor facsimile of them delivered by TUIs. *cough* :D
[4a] Motivated by the thought that at the current point in time perhaps the "essence" of a "terminal" is its linear "chronological" presentation of input/interaction/output history rather than its use of "text". (See also: "lab notebooks" & some tiling window manager features.)

Video stops on furst frame, audio continues to play,seek works
I apologise for not following procedure. I am in the middle of building mpv 0.37 from source. Irrespective of the outcome I will document what I had to do in addition to the instructions on mpv.io and if the problem perststs, where it happens and where not with kernel version, mpv version taken from the screen, and the terminal output.

S23 8k video freezes when played on VLC computer
Use MPV. Partticularily shinchiro's builds. Extract the folder where you want its installation directory to be, if you decide to install it. Otherwise, just drag and drop files on top of its window or executable.

Ripgrep is faster than {grep, ag, Git grep, ucg, pt, sift}
Author of ripgrep here.
Like automatic encoding detection and transparently searching UTF-16?
Or simple ways for composing character classes, e.g., `[\pL&&\p{Greek}]` for all codepoints in the Greek script that are letters. Another favorite of mine is `\P{ascii}`, which will search for any codepoint that isn't in the ASCII subset.
Or more sophisticated filtering features that let you automatically respect things like gitignore rules.
Those are all things that ripgrep does that grep does not. So I do not favor this explanation personally.
ripgrep has just about all of the functionality that GNU grep does. I would say the two biggest missing pieces at this point are:
* POSIX locale support. (But this might be a feature[1].)
* Support for "basic" regexes or some equivalent that flips the escaping rules around. i.e., You need to write `\+` to match 1 or more things, where as `+` will just match `+ literally.
Otherwise, ripgrep has unfortunately grown just about as many flags as GNU grep.
