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.

Debian 12 doesn't have readproc.h
Per https://github.com/opentrack/opentrack/issues/1453 , it looks as though bookworm is affected by the badly-thought-out https://gitlab.com/procps-ng/procps/-/commit/d974f064b5a269fe8bd009d1430d17218aaf07b7
- libprocps-dev missing from testing? (/usr/include/proc/readproc.h)

Curious `ps` behavior.
The ps you have on Linux (almost certainly from procps-ng) tries to be compatible with about half a dozen different Unix versions of ps. This is why it has so many different ways of requesting the same information. The output format produced by these methods corresponds to the ways those other pss worked.

systeroid: A more powerful alternative to sysctl(8) with a terminal user interface 🐧
FYI sysctl is already implemented in C and it is very legacy at this point: https://gitlab.com/procps-ng/procps/-/blob/newlib/sysctl.c

ugrep 3.7.5 released + announcing the Google OSPB award for work on ugrep
But not pgrep as it's a binary from procps-ng to find processes by name.

Originally posted on /r/debian, thought yall would enjoy too. Does anyone see any other way I can reduce my ram at idle? currently averages 390mb-420mb ram.
They fixed this like 7 years ago.

- The ugrep file pattern searcher

Ripgrep is faster than {grep, ag, Git grep, ucg, pt, sift}
I switched from from ripgrep to ugrep and never looked back. It's just as fast, but also comes with fuzzy matching (which is super useful), a TUI (useful for code reviews), and can also search in PDFs, archives, etc.
The optional Google search syntax also very convenient.

ripgrep is faster than {grep, ag, git grep, ucg, pt, sift}
These ripgrep announcements are getting a bit old, don't you think? Ripgrep hasn't improved or added new features since 2016. There are other fast alternatives with a lot more features, like ugrep and qgrep for example. Ugrep has fuzzy regex pattern search, archive search (even nested archives!), Boolean search queries like Google, interactive query TUI, hexdumps, and is compatible with GNU grep (ripgrep is not).

ugrep vs. grep – What are the differences?
It's the first time I hear about the ugrep. Would be nice to compare it with ripgrep, since both provide benchmark tables listing their tool at the top :D. For my everyday use speed doesn't matter much, as well as interactive mode seems useless (YMMV). So I'm staying with ripgrep for now.
- ugrep 3.10 - yet another grep for you - this one is fast and has a ton of cool features: now outputs directory trees for your viewing pleasure
