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.

Linux runtime security agent powered by eBPF
Yep, and from my experience too (made a tool that monitors network traffic with eBPF [1]) in addition to those issues there is also a sizable latency hit.

Monitor bandwidth usage with bandwhich (and build a snap package of it)
Similar to bandwhich, I recently created a snap of my own bandwidth monitor, picosnitch [1]. However I was only able to get it working with classic confinement (so it can't be published on the store) due to there being no snap interfaces for fanotify or BPF kfuncs.
I already packaged it for nearly every distro, but unfortunately most don't have dash [2] in their repos so the user needs to install it separately, and I was hoping that snap would be an easier solution for that.

What kind of applications are missing from the Linux ecosystem?
I created picosnitch which can do this
-
gnome-shell Runaway Bandwidth - More in Comments
If you're still having this issue, you can try picosnitch (I recently made it available in copr).
-
Help identifying which process is sending network requests
You can use picosnitch for this, I'm the developer and this is exactly the use case I had in mind when designing it (24/7 monitoring of traffic on a per executable basis, primarily in containerized environments).
-
Little Snitch Mini
I wrote picosnitch [1] which has the same notification and bandwidth monitoring features, however it doesn't block traffic for a couple reasons: avoiding scope creep so I can focus on more reliable detection and do things like hash every executable, which makes it harder to block traffic in a timely fashion.

System monitor that lists network usage for each process
I also wrote a program (picosnitch) which is newer than that list and has a bunch of features none of those other tools have, in case you're interested in checking it out!
-
linux security
which basically says launchpad builds the package directly from that repository, which states: This repository is an import of the Git repository at https://github.com/elesiuta/picosnitch.git.

Linux software list. Discussion and advice welcome!
picosnitch - monitors and hashes programs that connect to the internet, and can check them with VirusTotal.

What's your goto open source network & bandwidth monitors
For Linux, I created picosnitch which does exactly what you're looking for.
tracee
- Linux runtime security agent powered by eBPF
-
Identifying PID generating DNS requests
There're many other tools: https://github.com/aquasecurity/tracee from AquaSecurity for example
-
Help identifying which process is sending network requests
You can also use tracee, or auditd
-
How do I intercept executed commands in user space?
If you're interested specifically in bash, you can look into bcc's bashreadline to output user commands. If you're interested in applying security policies to potential user commands, you can also take a look at Tracee although other open source solutions exist here as well.

Implement DevSecOps to Secure your CI/CD pipeline
Falco is a cloud native Kubernetes threat detection tool. It can detect unexpected behavior, intrusions, and data theft in real time. In the backend, it uses Linux eBPF technology to trace your system and applications at runtime. For example, it can detect if someone tries to read a secret file inside a container, access a pod as a root user, etc, and trigger a webhook or send logs to the monitoring system. There are similar tools like Tetragon, KubeArmor, and Tracee which also provide Kubernetes runtime security.

Found malware on my system... can anyone tell me what it is? (or where better to ask)
Besides opensnitch to monitor outbound connections you can use https://github.com/aquasecurity/tracee/tree/main/tracee-ebpf or the bpfcc-tools (apt install bpfcc-tools, opensnoop-bpfcc, execsnoop-bpfcc, tcpconnect-bpfcc, etc) to monitor the system, just in case there's something still running.
