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.

Idea for a long-term advanced C project
I think a web-application based on https://github.com/lpereira/lwan and https://github.com/SanderMertens/flecs would be interesting. It would probably be faster than any other web-application out there. https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/#section=data-r10&hw=ph&test=json.

Performance of coroutine-style lexers in Go
You don't have to use a channel for coordination. Here is a lexer implementation (in C!) that very closely follows Rob Pike's talk and uses a ring buffer for coordination and is plenty fast.

If you watch the talk carefully, Rob Pike himself mentions this near the end of the talk.

Why Does Windows Use Backslash as Path Separator?
No, look at the associated unit test: https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy/blob/c6eb186064091c79f4...
If that test fails we could serve PHP source code instead of having it be evaluated, a major security flaw.

How to securely reverse-proxy ASP.NET Core web apps
However, it's very unlikely that .NET developers will directly expose their Kestrel-based web apps to the internet. Typically, we use other popular web servers like Nginx, Traefik, and Caddy to act as a reverse-proxy in front of Kestrel for various reasons:

HTTP/2 Continuation Flood: Technical Details
I think that recompiling with upgraded Go will not solve the issue. It seems Caddy imports `golang.org/x/net/http2` and pins it to v0.22.0 which is vulnerable: https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy/issues/6219#issuecommen....

Show HN: Nano-web, a low latency one binary webserver designed for serving SPAs
Caddy [1] is a single binary. It is not minimal, but the size difference is barely noticeable.
serve also comes to mind. If you have node installed, `npx serve .` does exactly that.
There are a few go projects that fit your description, none of them very popular, probably because they end up being a 20-line wrapper around http frameworks just like this one.

I Deployed My Own Cute Lil’ Private Internet (a.k.a. VPC)
Each app’s front end is built with Qwik and uses Tailwind for styling. The server-side is powered by Qwik City (Qwik’s official meta-framework) and runs on Node.js hosted on a shared Linode VPS. The apps also use PM2 for process management and Caddy as a reverse proxy and SSL provisioner. The data is stored in a PostgreSQL database that also runs on a shared Linode VPS. The apps interact with the database using Drizzle, an Object-Relational Mapper (ORM) for JavaScript. The entire infrastructure for both apps is managed with Terraform using the Terraform Linode provider, which was new to me, but made provisioning and destroying infrastructure really fast and easy (once I learned how it all worked).

Automatic SSL Solution for SaaS/MicroSaaS Applications with Caddy, Node.js and Docker
So I dug a little deeper and came across this gem: Caddy. Caddy is this fantastic, extensible, cross-platform, open-source web server that's written in Go. The best part? It comes with automatic HTTPS. It basically condenses all the work our scripts and manual maintenance were doing into just 4-5 lines of config. So, stick around and I'll walk you through how to set up an automatic SSL solution with Caddy, Docker and a Node.js server.

Bluesky announces data federation for self hosters
Even if it may be simple, it doesn't handle edge cases such as https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy/issues/1632
I personally would make the trade off of taking on more complexity so that I can have extra compatibility.

Freenginx.org
One of the most heavily used Russian software projects on the internet https://www.nginx.com/blog/do-svidaniya-igor-thank-you-for-n... but it's only marginally more modern than Apache httpd.
In light of recently announced nginx memory-safety vulnerabilities I'd suggest migrating to Caddy https://caddyserver.com/
