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.

Experiences with Concurrent Hash Map Libraries
junction has a very impressive performance benchmark here. Initially it worked for my application, but I ran into some issues: Only raw pointers are supported as either keys or values. This means I am responsible for memory management and it was a pain. junction's required dependency "turf" causes linker errors when compiling with -fsanitize=address because there are symbol name collisions. Every thread that accesses the hash map must periodically call an update function or memory will be leaked. No commits in over three years, GitHub issues aren't getting any attention. The author said it's experimental and he doesn't want it to become more popular

Show HN: A pure C89 implementation of Go channels, with blocking selects
libmill (https://github.com/sustrik/libmill) and libdill (https://github.com/sustrik/libdill) should be similar and probably mentioned.
As far as I understand the differences between CspChan and libmill might be that libmill also implements lightweight tasks (coroutines) and everything that goes with it (IO multiplexing, async timers, etc), while CspChan uses OS threads?

Libdill: Structured Concurrency for C (2016)
I saw this in 2017. Unfortunately, not much activity now. https://github.com/sustrik/libdill/commits/master
Might be fun to play with, but I wouldn't rely on it. Generally, better off with libuv for existing projects or Rust for greener fields where lifetimes are checked and safe concurrency is much easier.
What are some alternatives?
moodycamel - A fast multi-producer, multi-consumer lock-free concurrent queue for C++11
libmill - Go-style concurrency in C
libcds - A C++ library of Concurrent Data Structures
ck - Concurrency primitives, safe memory reclamation mechanisms and non-blocking (including lock-free) data structures designed to aid in the research, design and implementation of high performance concurrent systems developed in C99+.
