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.

Ask HN: Are there wrapper/runner programs that encrypt writes and decrypt reads?
How can a program accomplish this? by using/doing something like virtualization? emulation? syscall/API translation? e.g. like WINE?

Nix without NixOS, how doable is this and how much do I miss?
Essentially, running stuff that needs GL graphics is a bit funky... There's a workaround called nixGL though.

Calibre Replacement Considerations
I think installing Calibre is a good use case for installing Nix (www.nixos.org).
Unfortunately, you might also need https://github.com/guibou/nixGL to run graphical apps under Nix. It's a shell script to use the correct OpenGL library.

Nix-env apps on Debian unable to be executed via GUI KDE.
Try the NixGL wrapper.

Issue: with python-matplotlib
Are you running the Nix package manager on not-NixOS? If so I recall needing NixGL for OpenGL integration.

How do I update packages when using home-manager?
$ nix-channel --list home-manager https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager/archive/release-22.05.tar.gz nixgl https://github.com/guibou/nixGL/archive/main.tar.gz nixos https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-unstable

Needs a separate program to run GUI applications on non-NixOS systems

Imagine your entire purpose being made completely obsolete by a single compiler option
IMO the proper solution to this is Nix/Guix, since they have the best of both worlds (sharing libraries where possible, but allowing different versions where needed). Shame that libGL is a mess and as such is difficult to get right in this way, and as such you need hacks like https://github.com/guibou/nixGL for most GUI stuff. That said, people are working on improving the situation.

Setting up my new laptop: Nix style
I get what you mean, but keep in mind that for every distro you're reliant on the community to get nvidia support integrated. Also if you only have few apps that require it, then the nixGL flake is not bad. https://github.com/guibou/nixGL

Wow - Ubuntu is so much more "batteries included" - any other distro like this?
One of my favorites was this one where they told us:
- App, sistema operativo e tanto altro per privacy in un mondo alla Gorge Orwell...
- Working on an xrandr launch arg to fix ultrawide issues with OpenGL, need some assistance with the cmd
- Screen flashing white
- The best distro for nvidia laptops

Removing Steam also removes PipeWire
Using controllers with Steam's flatpak is impossible without steam-devices. Installing steam-devices with apt also installs Steam's .deb. Uninstalling Steam's .deb completely removes PipeWire. I have found this issue on GitHub from six months ago, but it hasn't been fixed yet. I'm surprised there are still issues with Steam on Pop!_OS after what happened last time.
