The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
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.

MutexProtected: A C++ Pattern for Easier Concurrency
Boost isn't gigabytes in size wat are you talking about. All the headers are here in this 14mb archive: https://github.com/ossia/sdk/releases/download/sdk25/boost_1... and that is enough to use 90% of the boost libs as they are mostly header only

Dropping support for old C++ standards
I do it pretty much on my own for https://ossia.io ; it takes me roughly a day every other month to update my mac, linux and windows SDKs to the new LLVM / Qt / FFMPEG / {... other large dependency I use ...}.
Definitely not the end of the world. Said SDKs & build scripts are available here: https://github.com/ossia/sdk for anyone interested (I'll be honest though: the scripts are a mess!)

Boost.URL ACCEPTED, get the beta now!
b) If you're concerned about having to download all boost libraries in an environment where this is costly you can download only the subset of headers Boost.URL needs with boostdep. That's how boost libraries are tested in CI, by the way.

New Boost.Unordered containers have BIG improvements!
If you just want to download the modules you need straight away, then you also use this script

Boost v1.79.0 released
If what you want is avoid downloading all the files, then there’s that: https://github.com/boostorg/boostdep/blob/develop/depinst/depinst.py
What are some alternatives?
When comparing sdk and boostdep you can also consider the following projects:
kelcoro - C++20 coroutine library
rustex - Rust-style mutex type for C++
unordered - Boost.org unordered module
FetchBoostContent - CMake FetchContent for Boost libraries
boost - cmake based plugable static compiled boost library
