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.

PinePhone Pro Announced
If that's the bar, then mobile Linux is simultaneously very fucking far, and dramatically closer than most people might think.
As far as messaging apps, they're all technically there - the best kind of there for the crowd that this would interest. Spinning up a Matrix server means maybe a days work for this crowd, which allows (and I currently use it for) Whatsapp, Signal, Telegram, and more. Even better, due to constant improvements by Matrix, the server is only getting lighter and your options more varied with things like Construct [0].
Email is there - one only really needs to ensure geary is set to scale to the phone screen. As far as gMail, I'd question what the overlap is between "Privacy conscious enough to use a Pinephone" and "Uses gMail instead of anything IMAP".
That only leaves navigation and social media. For the former, I've used the mobile site in-browser on my Android phone that the Google Maps app was too heavy for. And for both on the Pinephone, especially the pro, Waydroid [1] is getting closer to closing the gap.
To be honest, I could see it being mainstream for geeks within two years. Though that's unlikely what you meant by mainstream - which I think we can agree is several more years away, if ever.

Teamspeak 5 to be based on the Matrix protocol.
On its project GH roadmap, why then does it say:
-
Taking FOSDEM Live via Matrix
It does - the point is that anyone can spin up their own Matrix server (or pick an existing one) and get involved; they don't have to use the fosdem.org one.
Separately, in terms of implementations: Dendrite is usable these days, albeit beta: https://matrix.org/blog/2020/10/08/dendrite-is-entering-beta, and meanwhile Synapse is stable. Conduit (https://conduit.rs) is making progress on federation (and works for simple use cases), and Construct (https://github.com/matrix-construct/construct) exists too.

Neovim Conf 2022
There's (undocumented) IaC for the Jitsi-based multistreaming infrastructure used for NixCon's all-virtual 2020 conference here: https://github.com/nixcon/nixcon-video-infra
I think it was quite a bit of work, it worked very well. You can see the results here, according to your preference:

The authors on that GitHub repo might be able to offer some advice or other help to F/OSS communities interested in hosting conferences where presenters can call in using only free software!

Taking FOSDEM Live via Matrix
We had a wonderful all-free-software NixCon 2020 a few months ago (with live talks via Jitsi for talker but not audience for better networking topology). All the code is in https://github.com/nixcon/nixcon-video-infra.
It's probably too late for the Element crew to hop on the Nix bandwagon at this point :/, but I look forward to seeing the FOSDEM effort and and that cross pollinate in the future!
