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.

[ANN] yabridge 4.0, with chainloading, an overhauled backend, and many user experience improvements
On the backend side, a lot has changed. The biggest change is that the dependency on Boost has been completely removed, and everything has been reworked accordingly. This should make packaging easier, as yabridge now no longer depends on any system library other than the basic libraries needed to interact with X11. Some parts of Boost have been replaced by other headers-only libraries, while other parts now simply use custom implementations. All of this is explained in more detail in the 'Packaging notes' section of the changelog. Yabridgectl also lost its dependency on winedump, at least in most cases. It now tries to parse plugin libraries directly using the goblin binary parsing library. This should also speed up the syncing process. I did, however, run into one plugin that this new parser couldn't handle. If that happens then winedump will still be used instead.

Crash reporting in Rust
For now the minidump creation is a fairly faithful port of the Breakpad code, but like I said some of that code is really old, so there's probably cases where taking a step back and rethinking the approach based on new kernel or OS capabilities or, instead of recreating process snapshotting for each non-Windows, just have a really good parser for each OSes crash format that does a transform. Rust is a fantastic language for writing those kinds of parsers, so that would definitely be an interesting avenue to investigate, especially since in the Linux case a lot of groundwork has already been done by goblin.

What's your favourite under-rated Rust crate and why?
I do security-related projects in Rust, and goblin has been my go-to crate for any type of binary parsing (ELF/PE/Mach-O).

What's the coolest Rust project you've seen that made you go, 'Wow, I didn't know Rust could do that!'?
Hope you are aware that structopt is in maintenance mode and is merged into clap as of v3.

Task manager for Linux using rust
As I understood you need to implement a command line argument parser for that you can use clap https://github.com/clap-rs/clap or structopt https://github.com/TeXitoi/structopt.

clap 3.1: A step towards 4.0
Something I've been giving thought to is how to help structopt users discover that clap3 is their upgrade path. We've put notices in the structopt repo but cargo upgrade and docs.rs won't say anything. See https://github.com/TeXitoi/structopt/issues/525 for more ideas we're considering.

ANN: clap 3.0.0-rc.0!
For myself, I have found serde.rs really useful for undertanding their derives while I've always been frustrated with finding anything in structopt's documentation, so I modeled it more off of serde. This ended up both being in structure and not being in docs.rs. I think it really was the structure that was the frustration point for me but there was interest elsewhere in moving stuff out of docs.rs.

fncmd: Command line interface as a function.
I think it would be nice to have a comparison to clap-derive and/or structopt in the README, as that is what I expect most users would compare this to. The subcommand handling looks especially cumbersome compared to deriving on structs and enums.

Linkerd 2.11 now includes a Kubernetes controller written in Rust
However, the one place I'm a little curious to rewrite things is the CLI... every time we have to deal with cobra I long for Rust's structopt.

It is written in Rust using the structopt and swayipc crates. It is published on crates.io. The repository is hosted on GitLab. The repository is mirrored on GitHub.
