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.

What are you rewriting in rust?
But I'd suggest joining an existing project instead. This week in Rust has a call for participation section each week. There are also some exciting rewrites like arti, gitoxide, fish, and a steady stream of projects announced in this sub.
- [Gitoxide in April] A first step towards `gix status` and `.gitattributes` matching
- [Gitoxide in March]: `cargo` shallow clones PR and `gitoxide` in `cargo` nightly
-
What’s an actual use case for Rust
There's a re-implementation of git called gitoxide
- [Gitoxide in February]: `git-repository` is now `gix`, and statically known git-config keys

The Git source code audit, viewed as a Rust programmer
Gitoxide is useful in other Rust programs that need git integration, e.g. Cargo[1] or Helix[2].
I don't know how far he intends to take it, but the author of gitoxide (which is just a library, like libgit2) uses it to power a git CLI called gix. As of October it looks like it can do fetches and clones: https://github.com/Byron/gitoxide/discussions/623 .
Since the git CLI is subcommand-based, it wouldn't be too hard to provide replacements for individual git subcommands one at a time.
It'll be interesting to see where the gitoxide[1] project goes, being a rust implementation of git

The most creative, funny, clever, ridiculous, ... library names!
gitoxide, because, well, everything around rust is kind-of low-hanging fruit of puns to make

What’s everyone working on this week (1/2023)?
After having used the gitoxide lib in bacon last week so that ignored files don't trigger jobs on change, I'll try to see whether I can replace git2 with gitoxide in a few other applications. Gitoxide lib is still a little rough in parts but I really like when I can replace a native lib with a pure Rust one.

Compactor/CompactGui, user interface for Windows filesystem compression, not updated anymore?

Why does ark need so much space?
You can use CompactGUI to compress your game files

Is there a good way to compress games on Windows 11?
You can try https://github.com/ImminentFate/CompactGUI although game assets won't compress much furhter.

Use this tool to reduce the size of games without impacting performance
Years ago there was a lot of excitement here around Windows Compact feature (compact.exe), and someone made a GUI for it: https://github.com/ImminentFate/CompactGUI

NTFS compression is still a single core task in 2021, unfortunately. It's all about priorities, seems the 10th UI redesign for the next Windows was more important...
There's even a GUI if the command line scares you: https://github.com/ImminentFate/CompactGUI

Why does SE gobble up so much disk space?
Pretty much. I used to use CompactGUI but it has serious unresolved performance issues which made it unsuitable for larger trees of files. I was having fun with Rust over on FreeBSD and thought I'd give some Windows programming a try for a change.

Save disk space for your games: BTRFS filesystem compression as alternative to CompactGUI on Linux
So, there are programs for Шindoшs like CompactGUI or Compactor that can compress files or folders on NTFS partition using filesystem's capabilities of that. It's very good for some cases and can even make games load faster, especially huge ones that need to read a lot of data from disk. See this table for reference: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/14CVXd6PTIYE9XlNpRsxJUGaoUzhC5titIC1rzQHI4yI
