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.

I want to learn about kernel development
Last but not the least, learning by doing is fun so you can check out - raspberry-pi-os (writing an os from scratch) - https://github.com/s-matyukevich/raspberry-pi-os

Show HN: CheesecakeOS for Raspberry Pi Volume 0: Booting, Processes, and VM
CheesecakeOS for Raspberry Pi Volume 0: Booting, Processes, and Virtual Memory is the first in what I hope is a series of github markdown tutorials or volumes on bare-metal from-scratch operating system development.
I have dreamed of contributing to the Linux Kernel, but have yet to find the courage to jump in and do so. I started by attempting to read Understanding the Linux Kernel by Daniel Bovet and Marco Cesati, but found it was too advanced for me at the time. I found another text I credit with advancing my understanding, Computer Systems: A Programmer's Perspective by Randall Bryant and David O'Hallaron. I worked on the self-study labs from their book website, and found them to be a superb educational tool.
Further, then becoming interested in what creating an operating system actually means, I stumbled upon Sergey Matyukevich's Rasberry-Pi-OS github repo (https://github.com/s-matyukevich/raspberry-pi-os). I wanted to expand on his tutorial, for my own education, and, in the best case, for the benefit of others.
There are many ideas taken from Linux in the implementation, as when I didn't know how to proceed, that is the source I would consult. Though, I attempt to simplify and explain the details in the text. The implementation stops short of implementing or supporting a file system, the subject of the next volume.

Has anyone ever actually gotten a custom kernel/bare metal program to run specifically on the Raspberry Pi 4B?
Not familiar with this myself but aiming to start soon. Have found a nice youtube series for low level development on the RPi, not sure which version he uses, but reportedly it works for some on RPi 4. He also has a subreddit:

System snapshot tools for ext4
https://github.com/datto/dattobd is still a thing, apparently. Needs its own kernel module, so have fun with that.

Are they any tools to backup a *mounted* disk volume to an image?
There's https://github.com/datto/dattobd Never used it though.

BEST Way to backup a Raspberry Pi?
(Or if you're really crazy, and want image based incremental backups then this exists https://github.com/datto/dattobd).

Imaging mounted disk volumes under duress
The dattobd [1] block device driver fills this gap. It basically implements VSS like behavior on Linux. It is used in the Datto Linux backup agent in combination with the backup appliance [2], but it can be used stand alone as well (see readme).

ActiveBackup for Linux
It connects but fails to back up a remote Linux server. Then I read from somewhere saying it works only in LAN. I ends up using https://github.com/datto/dattobd and rsync.

Math-heavy software development jobs? I like math.
In my last job I worked on writing backup agents in C++ for multiple platforms using userspace API's. There was a team that exclusively worked on the Linux driver that our agent used, the driver is open source too - https://github.com/datto/dattobd
