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.

You can't just assume UTF-8
If you’re actually in a position where you need to guess the encoding, something like “ftfy” <https://github.com/rspeer/python-ftfy> (webapp: <https://ftfy.vercel.app/>) is a perfectly reasonable choice.
But, you should always do your absolute utmost not to be put in a situation where guessing is your only choice.
