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.

Inkscape is looking for a GTK developer Contributor
We have lots of mostly front-end stuff proposed for Inkscape but not enough developers to implement this. If you looking for a good place to contribute I think Inkscape is a good place for that. this is specific issue for design I provided https://gitlab.com/inkscape/ux/-/issues/143

How do I get the old snapping menu back?
I'm not an Inkscape developer myself, but from what I have read on the official bug-tracker, the developers are keenly aware about the new snapping popover's drawbacks and the potential problems for advanced users (and were even before they released the latest version).

Any way to preview fonts on text on the page while scrolling through them?
Hopefully, your dream will become true in the next major release (inkscape 1.3). If you're interested checkout this: https://gitlab.com/inkscape/ux/-/issues/151
- Inkscape 1.1.1 released

Potemkin villages and the autocracy of design
inkscape actually had a proposal to align with GTK/GNOME's guidelines: https://gitlab.com/inkscape/ux/-/issues/24
- So I may have found a way to add multiple page support, just need some help from devs to know if this is possible.

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.
