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.

DockerHub replacement stratagy and options
IPDR is a service to allow for images stored on IPFS to be accessible over Docker Registry HTTP API V2 Spec

Docker's deleting Open Source images and here's what you need to know
Probably. You still need to store and serve the data somewhere of course but for even moderately successful open source organizations they will likely find volunteer mirrors. The nice thing about IPFS is that new people can start mirroring content without any risk or involvement, new mirrors are auto-discovered, like bittorrent.
It seems like the docker registry format isn't completely static so I don't think you can just use a regular HTTP gateway to access but there is https://github.com/ipdr/ipdr which seems to be a docker registry built on IPFS.
> We'd still need a registry for mapping the image name to CID, along with users/teams/etc.
IPNS is fairly good for this. You can use a signing key to get a stable ID for your images or if you want a short memorable URL you can publish a DNS record and get /ipns/docker.you.example/.
Of course now you have pushed responsibility of access control to your DNS or by who has access to the signing key.

An independent package manager that every hacker deserves
There is also nix-portable (https://github.com/DavHau/nix-portable), which is basically a drop-in replacement for normal nix that does everything required for no-root operation by itself when needed. Just put the single binary in your PATH and it's ready.

level (/nix/store/)
Yes, for cache hits to happen it has to be this way as far as I remember.
There is a project called nix-portable though that I've seen some HPC users report success with:

The Determinate Nix Installer
Great work Graham and team, I'll be switching to it on OSX.
I wonder if you took a look at some of the modifications done by portable-nix (https://github.com/DavHau/nix-portable), most important ones being:
a) Allowing user to choose the location of the nix folder (for example $HOME/.nix) by using bwrap or proot
- is it possible to install the nix package manager with no root privleges?

Day 15 with silverblue, loving how rock stable the whole system feels! Exactly the kind of distro i've always wanted.
you can install it and forget about it. yeah the major downside is that you need to disable selinux unless you use nix portable.

I made a nix-portable integration for direnv for my friend who doesn't want to install nix on his machine 😈
Yeah sadly nix-portable doesn't support macOS because of missing kernel features. They are also thinking about docker fallback though: https://github.com/DavHau/nix-portable/issues/23 🤔😋

Introducing Riff, a Nix-based tool for automatically providing external dependencies to Rust projects
There is this: https://github.com/DavHau/nix-portable but I agree we need an official solution

We want to make Nix better
Not entirely true, there are many ways in which you can use a custom location and still take advantage of the binary cache. You can do it with chroot, file system namespaces, bind mounts and so on. There's also a nice user friendly tool that does exactly this [1].

This is cool! In a similar vein, it's worth mentioning nix-portable is a thing. Same idea of containerization except it avoids docker. https://github.com/DavHau/nix-portable
