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.

Another two cents about the current situation with the Scala user base and economics.
Another potential example would be a better C#, but unfortunately I'm not familiar enough with it to evaluate what can be improved. While I don't think Scala as any chance of replacing C# in Unity, in the indie space Unity has been losing some market share to Godot, which has bindings for multiple languages. A "better C#" could become the next indie gamedev language. Who knows, maybe this could be a interesting use case for Scala (or even Scala Native).

[FREE] Looking For Dev Team For Indie Startup
I was thinking as in releasing your game under an open source license and putting code on like github or Codeberg for people to use/contribute to. You could use Godot https://godotengine.org/ Many different languages you can use https://github.com/Vivraan/godot-lang-support

Learning Programming For The First Time! Any Tips?
It depends on what you are looking to do. Find what you want to do/make, chose a language that you like and gets you where you want to go and stick with it, learn it, make projects, many small projects to help you grow. Check out this for games https://godotengine.org/ https://github.com/Vivraan/godot-lang-support Some languages are harder to master than others. I went the route of C++ because it is what I wanted to learn, got me where I want to go, and I didn't like the higher-levels ones so I was good with a longer road, but everyone is different, chose what works best for you. Also you should look at the FAQ

I want to learn game development with programming:
You could try Godot. https://github.com/Vivraan/godot-lang-support Godot has it's own language gdscript, which is python like. You can use other languages as well. Really the most important thing is to chose something, stick to it, learn it, play with it, build new things with it, do it all in incremental ways, move by tiles not by miles, and continue to grow. Have fun, keep focus and keep working on it, get plenty of practice, it will help.

Dev snapshot: Godot 4.0 beta 9
No: https://github.com/Vivraan/godot-lang-support
GDScript is the most tightly integrated into the Godot editor, but there are tonnes of language bindings that work just as well and call into the C++ API just the same. C# is officially supported and they just ported it in Godot 4 to use .NET 6 instead of Mono. I've also used the Typescript/Javascript module from a 3rd party in the past and it surprised me how good the dev experience was.

Alternative Scripting Languages?
Here is a list of language bindings and their operational status https://github.com/Vivraan/godot-lang-support

Unity is laying off hundreds of employees
The languages listed as "production ready" here[0] are Javascript, Lua, Nim, Rust and Typescript.
Also I would hesitate to call GDScript a weird Python. It shares some of Python's syntax, like significant whitespace, but beyond that it's a completely different beast.
There is an actual Python for Godot project[1] but I don't know how close it is to ready for prime time.

Python to be ~40% faster. Can Python's new tricks benefit GDScript?
That's odd specifically w/relation to Godot (especially as it's listed among production-ready bindings for 3.X), I know I feel like I've mentioned it too often whenever it seems actually relevant.

What is the best way to contribute to Linux gaming as a developer? Anyone here a contributor to any of the Linux gaming projects out there?
For Godot and languages another potential point to help is with 4.0a and GDextension bindings, GDextension is the replacement for GDnative. Particularly 3.X allows using community-made bindings to use desired languages, but being 4.0 has the new system that means all of the existing bindings need to be updated/replaced.

Anybody still trying to make Godot 4.X bindings?
I don't know if this will help, but here's some GodotNim (3.X) code that might be easier to re-implement(/convert?) and test. 75 LOC, label and button code.
-
Are Godot's third party languages compatible with each other?
I just want to add, you can also easily call native code from Godot-specific if you can do so in the language. It's Nim-Nim, but here's an example I did (full project here):
-
Nim-lang and Godot
I uploaded a decbinhex number converter (using Godot for the GUI) here.
-
FYI, you can use Rust as a native scripting language
Not too long ago I made my own example for Nim-lang, just a simple decbinhex converter GUI.
-
How to embed Nim expression inside a string? Like template strings in JS.
For reference I've already made the converter (Currently a pull-request to be added to Zetashift's Godot-Nim examples) and just using strutils is one thing I've done (along with manual conversion).
-
I think Nim community should focus more on Godot engine.
For something that actually does something, I reccomend the 2 test projects by Zetashift, specifically the dodge-the-creeps demo but note that you have to:
