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.

Scalability roadmap?
I had an idea that you could shard the blockchain into multiple parallel networks representing a fraction of the total supply each. This could spread tx volume among each sub-network. Combined with something like Fog for txo recovery could greatly increase the upper bound of scaling on the base layer.

Update on beta testing payments in Signal
https://github.com/mobilecoinfoundation/fog#overview
This explains the issues fairly well. tl;dr most blockchains require a large CPU and/or network expensive sync which is prohibitive on mobile. As a fix/hack many web and mobile apps have a SPOF gateway which the client must trust absolutely.

Message from MobileCoin
“Monero isn't fast enough and doesn't support transaction recovery (it also has probabilistic linkage which MobileCoin doesn't due to our use of secure enclaves). We spent almost 18 months building MobileCoin Fog to solve the second problem (https://github.com/mobilecoinfoundation/fog). It's a non-trivial stack of code to allow users to recover strings from servers they don't control without the operators of those servers being able to learn what strings are being recovered. Don't get me wrong, we stand on the shoulders of giants, but there's a lot of new tech here.”

Bought MOBILECOIN? You might have been SCAMMED - 37.5 MILLION coins were PRIVATELY sold at 80 CENT per coin
I personally love Dash. One thing that was a requirement for me was that privacy in the system can't be optional if you want to give system-wide guarantees about the privacy of the system. That is to say, non-privacy-protecting transactions weaken the privacy of correlated privacy-protecting transactions. Second, I don't personally think CoinJoin goes far enough, specifically there's still a transaction graph to analyze. MobileCoin does not have a transaction graph which is a distinguishing factor from other cryptocurrencies. Finally, other privacy coins have implemented encrypted ledgers (see CryptoNote), which is something MobileCoin has; to the best of my recollection CoinJoin does actually have an encrypted ledger which is a big distinguishing factor. In order for users to recover transactions from an encrypted ledger, you need an encrypted recovery service which, again to the best of my knowledge, no one had ever invented. This is where Fog comes in, which allows fast mobile recovery of user transactions even in an encrypted ledger (https://github.com/mobilecoinfoundation/fog).

Help Us Test Payments in Signal
Hi,
Before you label MobileCoin a scam, I would encourage you to take a look at the Github. I think you'll see that we've made a lot of very carefully considered choices on how to deliver a great payments experience without many of the compromises other cryptocurrencies have chosen. Of note, the speed of transactions, much greener energy design, privacy-protections, and mobile-first UX are differentiators. Many cryptocurrencies have some of these features, but I don't know of any other that has all of them.
Believe me, I have a lot of feelings about how absurd cryptocurrency has become in the last decade. At its core, I still believe that there is something beautiful in decentralized ledgers and I think that this is the way that the world will settle debts over the next hundred years. Signal chose MobileCoin because nothing else met their performance and privacy standards. In order to meet those goals we wrote a lot of new technology that is fundamentally different from how other cryptocurrencies are architected today (check out our oblivious RAM implementation, for example: https://github.com/mobilecoinfoundation/fog).
I love Signal and I started MobileCoin to help fund their work. For me, a world with Signal in it is a better place.

Incident at Slack
I haven't had much occasion to use it (I dipped into a gaming group that used Matrix but quickly fell out of it) but https://github.com/poljar/weechat-matrix seems mostly adequate if you are a weechat user and just need the text chat features. Feels just like IRC.

Adventures in Fuzzing Matrix’s Encryption
For a nicely documented and clean Matrix client implementation in Python, see weechat-matrix[1] and the matrix-nio[2] library it's based on. There's also Mirage[3] which is also based on matrix-nio and is a GUI client.

Thoughts on the state of the freenode IRC network - Edward Kmett
The weechat plugin unfortunately cannot coexist with wee-slack (https://github.com/wee-slack/wee-slack/issues/812, https://github.com/poljar/weechat-matrix/issues/248), so if one wants to participate in the Haskell Foundation Slack, or any other Slack (e.g. for work), then Matrix is off limits. Yeah, it's just a bug that will eventually get fixed, but it does make things unnecessarily complicated. :-/

Loading scripts
I have installed the weechat client with matrix (https://github.com/poljar/weechat-matrix) and it is running properly. However, I cannot figure out how to install scripts. Particularly, the upload and download files scripts mentioned in the github page, since they are not in the official list of scripts. How should I proceed?
