The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
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.

The AT protocol is the most obtuse crock of s*
What are your thoughts on KERI? Some of Phillip's slide decks are weird to go through, but I really like its security & usability goals (key rotation needs to be realistic!) and the fact that it's going through the IETF RFC process. (Also, it avoids cryptocurrency-related blockchain baggage. It's disappointing how much blockchains have infested decentralized identity efforts.)

BlueSky uses @noble/secp256k1 which performs this stuff in Javascript, with about 880* verifications per second on the Apple M2 (a chip with a relatively high IPC, likely higher than your average server).
Verifying those messages will take about a minute of CPU time per user (assuming no impact from cache misses due to threads swapping in and out and processing new data). I think that's quite significant.
