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.

/r/2600 will go dark from June 12-14 in protest against Reddit API changes
For myself I use https://github.com/taviso/nntpit which uses the subreddit's .json endpoint and is done by an indy developer not a business. So changes to Reddit's API negatively impact FOSS tools like this.
- I nuovi prezzi di Reddit per le API potrebbero portare alla fine delle app third-party.

Love Complex (2000). I just spent a month subtitling an old Japanese soap opera in its entirety, because it's one of the weirdest shows I've ever seen, and I need to share it with the world.

Don't Use Discord as a Forum
I'm not familiar with the codebase, but from my understanding it saves messages in a database [1], then periodically send out a formatted email to people who subscribed to the thread/group [2]
Anyone can post on the forum, you just have to provide an email address (you don't have to register, but you can enforce it)

[META] Like Rationalists Leaving A . . .
What I would really, really like in any forum software is an NNTP bridge. Ideally bidirectional, but at least readable via NNTP. So far, the only one I've seen is https://forum.dlang.org/ with actual code at https://github.com/CyberShadow/DFeed .
