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.

Show HN: Git-credential-OAuth, Git Credential helper using OAuth in browser
.NET applications are technically challenging for Linux distributions to package. https://github.com/dotnet/source-build/discussions/2960
Git Credential Manager indeed release a self-contained binary for Linux x86_64 (no arm64 yet), though the installation size is necessarily large (80 MB) to include the .NET runtime. git-credential-oauth Linux binaries (x86_64 and arm64) are much smaller at 5 MB. https://github.com/hickford/git-credential-oauth#comparison-...

.NET 6 is now in Ubuntu 22.04
Unfortunately, packaging applications built on .NET is still a challenge for any OS that wants to build everything from source and doesn't allow network access. Like you say, duplicating nuget into os-app-package-manager is challenging. Even side from the duplication, we need to bootstrap the ecosystem, in particular dealing with cyclic dependencies and version explosion as a result of all the different versions of all the dependencies that an average dotnet application needs.
We are starting to work through it here: https://github.com/dotnet/source-build/discussions/2960. Any advice/tips/contributions would be welcome, I think.

Shopify Invests in Research for Ruby at Scale
If you want to build .NET Core yourself, Microsoft provides you with the steps necessary to do so here: https://github.com/dotnet/source-build
Maybe our definitions of open source are different, or maybe you're just shitting on Microsoft for your own reasons. Regardless of whatever your experiences have been with .NET in the past, they don't mirror the majority of the folks that use it everyday.

C# for Systems Programming
The C# compiler and parts of the supporting .NET runtime are written in C#, so yes there is a boot strapping issue. Other languages like Rust or even C compilers written in C have this problem.
For initial porting to a new system or processor architecture, the C++ part of CoreCLR (the main runtime for .NET) can be built with CMake and LLVM on the target system. The libraries can be cross-compiled on another system that already supports .NET and copied to the target system. Some Details are here:
https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/blob/main/docs/design/core...
For building from source to satisfy requirements Linux distributions, Microsoft has a system to build from source. My understanding from the last time I closely looked at it is some binary dependencies are de compiled to MSIL (the bytecode used by .NET). Since CoreCLR includes a MSIL assembler written in C++ (ilasm), it can bootstrap using these MSIL sources. But I have not looked at this project closely in a while and it evolved quite a lot while I was watching it. The system for the source build is here:

What would you recommend as a workaround/alternative for VisualStudio for my university course under Linux?
Note that there's a bug with the version of dotnet from Fedora's repositories (basically any version built from source by distro maintainers) that breaks Omnisharp for a lot of projects. See https://github.com/dotnet/source-build/issues/2006
