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.

Apple must open iPadOS to sideloading within 6 months, EU says
> Just imagine how much more versatile the iPad Pro would be if only you could run Linux VMs on it
After installing https://ish.app for Alpine Linux emulation on iPad, one immediately comes up with use cases, even though it's excruciatingly slow.
Hopefully Apple opens up the imminent M3 iPad Pros to run macOS and Linux VMs.

Ente: Open-Source, E2E Encrypted, Google Photos Alternative
They don't "allow" it, but most apps that need background execution just ask permission for geolocation tracking and pretend to use it, for example iSH[1]. There are a few activities that the app can do to prevent itself from being suspended when it goes out of focus, like playing sound, geolocation etc.

How to copy a file between devices?
Android: install termux, `pkg install openssh`, and preferably run `termux-setup-storage` to give it access to storage folders.

How Virtualisation came to Apple Silicon Macs
This of course hasn't been true for years, eg: http://omz-software.com/pythonista/index.html
And you can run a C compiler (or anything) inside https://ish.app/ too.

ScummVM officially released in the App Store
False. iSH is an x86 "bytecode" emulator.
"Possibly the most interesting thing I wrote as part of iSH is the JIT. It's not actually a JIT since it doesn't target machine code. Instead it generates an array of pointers to functions called gadgets, and each gadget ends with a tailcall to the next function; like the threaded code technique used by some Forth interpreters."

Stop EU Chat Control
There are plenty of solutions for running Python in an IDE on the iPad. There is an even an x86 emulator and a Linux terminal built on top of it in the App Store.
https://ish.app/
It can run anything that you can run on an x86 in user mode. I downloaded the AWS CLI (which requires Python) to run some tests
By the way, you were completely wrong about VSCode being written in .Net.
> That's just compiling the code to a native binary, which you would then have to go submit through Apple's store. How does that help for an IDE expected to allow you to test (i.e. execute) and debug the code you've just written ten seconds ago?
There is an existence proof that it could be done. If you ran iSH with remote VNC you could have a full IDE on a Mac.

VirtualBox KVM Public Release
Yes, I recently had to compile some stuff on Windows (I'm on an AMD Linux host) and VirtualBox just wouldn't start Microsoft's Windows dev VM (the one they provide for free for Virtualbox). I ended up learning how to use qemu and it works great...and as a bonus I was able to run a hackintosh (via https://github.com/kholia/OSX-KVM) and it works near flawlessly, which was something I was never able to accomplish with Virtualbox (granted I haven't tried in a few years).
I'm pretty happy with Qemu now, even if it's jsut a CLI interface. I was tempted to try the virt-* stuff, but honestly it seems like one more thing to learn so I'm going to hold off until I need something like copy/paste between VMs and can't figure it out in qemu direct.

NixThePlanet - Run macOS, Windows and more via a single Nix command + nixosModules
Working on a patch to include it as a flake input instead of vendoring it in the repo, so this should no longer be true. I use the QCOW2s for OpenCore from osx-kvm that I have not figured out how to reproduce yet https://github.com/kholia/OSX-KVM/blob/master/OpenCore/OpenCore.qcow2

VirGL
VirGL is definitely an interesting project, but all one has to do to get GPU passthrough working (from a Linux QEMU host to any guest OS) is: 1.) research a cheap, secondary GPU that is natively supported by the guest OS, 2.) plug such a secondary GPU into a PCIe slot on the host and hook it up to the primary monitor with a secondary cable (D-Sub vs. DVI, etc.), 3.) setup Linux to ignore the secondary GPU at boot and configure a QEMU VM for the GPU passthrough. The whole process takes perhaps one or two hours and as works flawlessly, with no stability issues. (Switching across the two GPU cables can be accomplished in software by using Display Data Channel /DDC/ utilities and switching keyboard/mouse can be accomplished by using evdev /event device/ passthrough.)

Lima: A nice way to run Linux VMs on Mac
You can use qemu/libvirt/kvm on any Linux host to run macOS pretty easily these days[1]. I run Ventura on unraid with nvidea gpu passthrough and it’s been fairly painless.
You can also run macOS in docker, but it’s ultimately running through qemu/kvm as well[2]
