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.

I programmed a SLY completion backend, it works, but I could use some help fine tuning it.
please someone create a pull request (or issue) on SLY github, to make it available to other SLY users. (I do not wish to have a github account and don't care about the copyright)

Font Identification Request
Probably a silly question. I saw some Emacs gifs in sly’s README and found the font simple but comfortable. Would anyone using the same font mind sharing his/her setup?

Lisp and cybersecurity !
I think lisp languages have a culture of not caring about security, (total speculation here) with roots going back to stallman decrypting the passwords and restoring anonymous access in the MIT lab. For example, quicklisp the main package manager people are using with common lisp is pulling packages over http. Normal lisp development spawns a tcp socket that accepts arbitrary code to execute. Emacs recently pushed a release fixing a vuln not because they thought it was important, but because their users cared and they realize it's a bad look to not push timely fixes to known vulns. All those I can't really fault cause they're just people in their free time, but clojure has major industry use and the default html templater (hiccup) doesn't escape html by default (well it does in version 2 but that's still alpha so most are on version 1), leading to most web backends written in clojure having cross-site scripting (XSS) vulns.

So i wanna learn Common Lisp
With emacs your two choices are either SLIME or SLY. Slime is a good place to start - it's rock solid. Once you get moving you can make a judgement call on whether or not SLY has features you'd like over what SLIME has available.
-
Are there plugins for Neovim that don't exist, that should exist, in your opinion?
A proper Neovim client for Slime or Sly. The closest is Vlime, but its UI is really janky.

What does your workflow look like on Linux?
SLIME or SLY for Common Lisp (if you want to work with it), Geiser for various Schemes

Basic dev environment setup
This may sound very threatening, but Emacs is the champion for lisp/scheme support out of the box in my opinion. If you are trying Common Lisp, check sly: https://github.com/joaotavora/sly It’s installable via melpa: https://melpa.org/#/getting-started

SLY with ListWorks
I have a Hobbyist version of LispWorks and would like to use it with SLY. However I get this weird behavior as expressed in: https://github.com/joaotavora/sly/discussions/513

Difficulty installing packages with quicklisp
I tried to quickload c-mera into sbcl (using Emacs and SLY on Linux (SLIME should work, too)) and succeeded. here is what I did: 1) git clone https://github.com/kiselgra/c-mera 2) git clone https://github.com/didierverna/clon 3. open a SLY-REPL and (ql:quickload "net.didierverna.clon"), be sure it succeeds, if not check asdf paths 4. change to c-mera directory and do a dos2unix file on all files in all (sub)directories. 5. run autoreconf -if 6. run ./configure --with-sbcl 7. run make this failed on my system, I didn't try to solve that 8. open the SLY-REPL and enter (ql:quickload "c-mera") 9. in SLY-REPL enter (ql:quickload "cmu-c") 10. in SLY-REPL enter (in-package :cmu-c) 11. in SLY-REPL enter (cm-reader) 12. in SLY-REPL run first example code from readme

Can't remove Emacs as "cask emacs is not installed"

Trying to understand the difference between GNU ELPA and NonGNU ELPA. Plz help.
MELPA is definitely the biggest package archive, probably mostly on account of the lower barrier to entry compared to GNU ELPA (maybe the difference would have been less pronounced if NonGNU ELPA had been there from the beginning, but one can only speculate). MELPA has its own requirements for packages, but indeed copyright assignment to the FSF is not one of them.

is there like a resource where I can learn how to create an elisp project
I would suggest to start at reading the manual first. Then I would recommend reading the Melpa guidance, even if you do not plan to contribute your package to Melpa, since it contains very useful info about linting, writing your code etc.

melpa.org blacklisted ?
The mxtoolbox link checks for SMTP blacklisting.. People won't be able to send mail from host with the IP address 178.128.185.1(which is the melpa.org webserver, not their mailserver, so everything's fine there).

Elisp project best practices
Observe that package.el compile files when they are installed, and they are not compiled in any particular order (actually whatever directory-files returns, which is what OS returns). So if you have multiple files that depend on each other, it is something to think of. There are also some guidelines on how to structure your project on Melpa.
