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.

Sourcegraph is no longer Open Source
[4] is not really a usable 'product'. Livegrep (https://github.com/livegrep/livegrep) was inspired by it and is very usable.
[3] used to be a Google open source project as well, but it fell out of maintenance, and Sourcegraph took it over. It powers most of the basic regex/literal search in Sourcegraph.
Mozilla's code is searchable in Searchfox (https://searchfox.org/) which uses the indexer from Livegrep, combined with their own Git indexer and language-specific cross reference databases.
OpenGrok (https://github.com/oracle/opengrok) is also rather well known, but I have found it to have a slightly worse UI than alternatives.

Improving GitHub Code Search
My job uses https://oracle.github.io/opengrok/ and I'm generally happy with it. It has some problems with special character searches at times but generally does what I want. It's certainly better than code search in our on-prem github instance.

Is there a tool that would allow me to query (structured search) a codebase?
I used it a long time ago, but I see this is still around: https://oracle.github.io/opengrok/

Firefox tooltip bug fixed after 22 years
- code browsing is primitive compared to https://searchfox.org/ (but most code browsing tool are, in comparison)
- my notifications are completely flooded by lots of useless information on GitHub, but that might be fixable
- our CI system (treeherder/taskcluster) scales, works on Linux/Mac/windows/Android and a bunch of version and arch, integrated with all of the other tools mentioned. Things such as auto-running tests based on the content of the patch, automatic categorization and prioritization of intermittent test failures, or auto-recording test failures and offering a pernosco recording showing the issue are just some of the features that we use daily without even thinking

Why SQLite Does Not Use Git
All the time. I would say at least 50% of my code browsing is done from my phone. I make heavily use of the mobile GitHub web interface for this (find-references support has been a godsend, search is still meh, I hate how they keep breaking basic find-in-page with SPA jank). Also Searchfox [0] when I need to comb through Firefox code (fast, excellent, no complaints).
Context: grad student, programming languages and systems research plus a bunch of IoT hacking on my own time. Either elder Gen Z or youngest possible Millennial, depending where you put the cutoff.

Firefox 113.x quietly adds new Linux system requirements
Try using Searchfox to find references to those libraries. When you open a result, hover your mouse over the left column to see what commit added each line.

How to apply some css changes only to one (firefox's dark) theme?
Also, you can use browser toolbox to inspect Firefox UI and see what styles are being applied to it and to figure out what selectors to use. Of course, there is also https://searchfox.org/ for when you need to figure out exactly how Firefox is doing some feature x.
