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.

Raspberry Pi-based mods for retro consoles/computers
Computers: 1. Commodore 64 Pi1541 - emulates 1541 floppy drive for Commodore 64. Video review 2. Amiga RGB2HDMI - convert Amiga's RGB video signal into friendly HDMI output. Video review 3. Amiga Pistorm - emulates faster version of Motorola 68000 CPU. Theoretically, can be used in any machine that uses 68k chip. But I hear mostly about Amiga Pistorm implementation. Basically, Pi Zero emulates faster CPU, video modes, acts as HDD storage, HDMI output etc. Pistorm does what popular Amiga accelerator boards do for hundreds of space bucks. Video review

Live Commodore Amiga DJ Stream from the UK
What fun! It's so good to see these systems still in use.
The Amiga community never fails to impress. In addition to modern updates to AmigaDOS (3.2.1 is great), there are projects to replace battery damaged motherboards, to replace hard-to-find custom chips, to offer brand new accelerators, and to even use a Raspberry Pi as an inexpensive accelerator (https://github.com/captain-amygdala/pistorm) for those on a budget.

You can't buy a Raspberry Pi
2 years to get a PiStorm amiga accelerator at a decent price (https://github.com/captain-amygdala/pistorm) due to chip shortage.
Finally managed to get 3 PiStorm boards (for a more decent price than the scams off ebay), but I have only one Pi 3B, and the 3A+ or Zero 2 are nowhere to be found
Only option is to buy 3B/B+ which are a little more common, at 3x+ the price, and unsolder the usb connector.
Sure feels like back in the amiga days when I was waiting for the Emplant to emulate a PC and whatnot... or waiting for Gateway, Escom, etc... to do something useful...
Come to think of it, it's a perfect retro experience WITH post-1994 frustrations of waiting with constant hopes and failures as a bonus :)

Pimiga Powered Amiga
This isn't a Raspberry Pi powered Amiga. (Which is a thing, see PiStorm: https://github.com/captain-amygdala/pistorm)
This is just a Raspberry Pi running an emulator. Any computer could do this.
- I don't want to be a d**k to anyone... But I have to ask this question.

DietPi released a new version 9.1
DietPi is a lightweight Debian based Linux distribution for SBCs and server systems, with the option to install desktop environments, too. It ships as minimal image but allows to install complete and ready-to-use software stacks with a set of console based shell dialogs and scripts.
The source code is hosted on GitHub: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi

The Orange Pi 5
Before someone starts the usual yadda yadda about the RPi biger community, the OS not having long time support etc. I would repeat one more time: do not rely on board vendor supplied images; this is valid for pretty much all boards. Just go to Armbian or DietPi pages and you'll almost certainly find one or more images that work on your board and forums to discuss about them with very knowledgeable people.
https://www.armbian.com/download/

Those projects are well worth a contribution, as they don't have a giant like Broadcom behind them.

OpenWrt One/AP-24.XY: new open source router board by OpenWrt and Banana Pi
> bananapi do a lot of boards but their software story has been a bit poor
This is quite common with other board manufacturers too. I'd rather suggest to ignore completely their cobbled together distros, often also tainted by proprietary modifications, that become unmaintained in a few years, and see if they're among the many supported by Armbian or DietPi.

Laptop so slow that even XFCE is laggy. What distro could run better?
You could also try very minimalistic distros like TwisterUI or DietPi which are most known for their use in the RasprebbyPi / SBC computers but which also have editions for desktop / laptop.
What are some alternatives?
