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.

Why the Internet Needs the InterPlanetary File System
In recent years there has been a large growth of alternative IPFS implementations. Partly because of different needs, partly because of unhappiness with the performance and reliability of the go-ipfs implementation.
At my previous company actyx.com we wrote our own ipfs implementation in rust called ipfs-embed ( https://github.com/ipfs-rust/ipfs-embed ) that serves as the storage for our distributed event sourcing system. It is used in production and is reliable.
The user of an Actyx deployment will not notice in any way that they are using ipfs in the background.
There are also some other interesting developments involving ipfs and rust. See a list of implementations here:

Nebulus: An IPFS-Less IPFS
Hypercore distributes signed log-based structures addressed by pubkey. It embeds indexes in each log entry to make this perform well; for instance Hyperbee is a b-tree over a log. (See https://github.com/hypercore-protocol/p2p-indexing-and-searc... for how that works.)
IPFS distributes content-addressed blobs which interlink to form DAGs. Mutability is supported by pubkey (or similar) pointers to recent hashes.
I work with Hypercore. It’s often a matter of preference between them.
What are some alternatives?
Camlistore - Perkeep (née Camlistore) is your personal storage system for life: a way of storing, syncing, sharing, modelling and backing up content.
bee - Bee is a Swarm client implemented in Go. It’s the basic building block for the Swarm network: a private; decentralized; and self-sustaining network for permissionless publishing and access to your (application) data.
