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.

Is it possible to have a magic key for same finger skipgrams?
So it's possible to have a magic key for same-finger bigrams (SFBs) as seen in Magic Sturdy.

looking for bespoke solution
Regarding chording, you might find inspiration in the chording schemes in Ikcelaks’ Magic Sturdy, the Ardux project, and precondition's "steno-lite" combos.

Have you tried "Repeat last mod"?
Beyond reversing, Ikcelaks's Magic Sturdy layout is a showcase of what else can be done. It is a layout where the Alternate Repeat key is placed in easy reach on the right index finger. This is the "magic" in Magic Sturdy. This key is configured to remove SFBs and type common n-grams, or potentially do anything else you want: "this key can be fully dynamic based on the last key press and need not be constrained to logically reversing that keypress." I've been trying Magic Sturdy for the past few weeks, and definitely this is a fun idea.

Starting my journey with colemak. This title took me about 2 minutes and cost me a headache.
I've lately been experimenting with variations on Oxey's Sturdy, which is an attractive layout for an unusually strong combination of low redirects and high rolls, yet keeping SFBs and pinky use low. A very interesting mod that I'm using now is Ikcelaks's Magic Sturdy. It incorporates the Alternate Repeat Key as a "magic" key whose function is determined adaptively based on the previous key. This is leveraged to get around the highest SFBs and as a shortcut to type common n-grams.

Is it possible to have a magic key for same finger skipgrams?
Yes, it is technically possible in QMK to record a history of the previous 2 keys (or more) to have a skipgram-reducing magic key. This is possible in QMK by saving the keycode for each event in a sliding buffer. See my example on triggering based on previously typed keys and the source for my Sentence Case for implementations of such a key history buffer. I see u/mEFErqlg shared an implementation as well in another comment thread.

Designing a Symbol Layer
I really appreciate all the work that's going into ZMK, and am by no means an expert on the limitations or architecture that they're working within, but personally feel that the recent macro-parameter implementation fails to elevate the Behavior[3] into a sufficiently powerful construct. I'm trying to imagine how it could offer greater composition and control over an invoked sequence of keycodes, key-positions, and behaviors, but if that ever comes to be, it will be on the shoulders of giants. Development has been very active, and the contributers have all done great work. Shoutout to zmk-nodefree-config[4] and thumbkey[5] for android, which has also been under rapid development from a wide group of contributers (special thx to WadeWT and sslater11, amoung many others).

Thumb and modifiers
Check out my keymap. My intention is to put a rather light load on the thumbs. Lately I've been doing this:
-
Q2 SEVERED RGB ANSI Encoder (knob) keymap with separate RGB settings for Mac/Win mode, RGB indicators for Caps Lock and Fn Layers, Caps Word, and Autocorrect!
Uses getreuer's 400 entry autocorrect dictionary. https://github.com/getreuer/qmk-keymap/blob/main/features/autocorrection_dict_extra.txt

Favorite Macros and Other Keyboard Configurations (on VIA or otherwise)
A cool thing with QMK is that you may insert arbitrary C code to handle key events. That's a lot of power, and I've been having fun with that. Check out my keymap. Some gems:
-
Sentence Case: QMK feature that automatically capitalizes first letter of sentences

Why are people suggesting 65% layout for office?
I am a software engineer and use a 65% as my daily driver. 65% is enough for the most common keys including a number row on the a base layer, and I have special symbols and F-keys on a symbol layer (see my keymap). For me, the point of mechanical keyboards is ergonomics, and on that front I suggest a split, columnar keyboard with QMK or other programmable firmware. Here is a brief features tour of why I think these keyboards are so awesome.

How much time do you spend using your mechanical keyboard and what types of activities do you use it for?
I'm a software engineer and naturally spend a lot of my time at the computer writing code, plus quite a bit of non-code writing (emails, reviews, ...). Since RSI is something of an occupational hazard, mechanical keyboards are for me mainly about preventative ergonomics and comfort. Though, writing custom code within QMK keymap has interesting productive possibilities... I've been having fun with that.
