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.

Crypton is forked from cryptonite with the original authors permission
There was also the Haskell-crypto fork (https://github.com/haskell-crypto/cryptonite) which was done for similar reasons - will this fork include any of its changes? I can’t remember if much was actually done in that project, most of the work has been on the libsodium library. It would be good to have just one place for all of this, perhaps Kazu could consider moving crypton into that organisation and helping contribute.

[ANNOUNCE] GHC 9.2.2 is now available!
GHC 9.2 support for cryptonite is added in this PR: https://github.com/haskell-crypto/cryptonite/pull/354 So that should be fixed soon i guess..
