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.

Why does musl make my Rust code so slow? (2020)
That is what Go does. BSDs hate it. https://github.com/redox-os/relibc could be repurposed for this easily enough.

Microsoft rewriting core Windows libraries in Rust
A C standard library rewritten in Rust already exists. [0]
glibc has its share of CVEs, and many of the bugs are of the double free, use-after-free, buffer overflow variety. [1]

Linux libs rewritten in rust?
It is entirely possible to write a libc replacement in Rust. In fact, Redox has done so. There is nothing preventing that library from providing a POSIX interface both to C programs and to the Rust libc FFI crate.
-
How do I use Zig as Rust's Standard C Library?
This is more a Rust question than a Zig question. In Rust, the choice of a specific libc (or to not use a libc) is part of the "target", for example many hardware platforms have gnu/musl/none targets. See also relibc or mustang for pure-rust alternatives. Each libc alternative require some work to integrate into Rust.

There have been a few attempts to replace libc, at least on Linux - for example Rustix, and Relibc.

Porting Rust's Std to Rustix
There is in fact already a library that does that https://github.com/redox-os/relibc
-
is there a musl implementation in Rust ?
There's relibc.

DMD Compiler as a Library: A Call to Arms
Here's the pipeline spitting out the same error as on my macbook did.

My favourite Git commit (2019)
Not completely on topic (if you read TFA) but my favorite Git commit is by compiler badass and HN frequenter, where he checks in an entire C compiler to the D language repo:

The C Bounded Model Checker: Criminally Underused
A new generated code alone is 4000 lines long [1]. The actual code added is just 2000 lines, and some are used to pay debts, I mean, to make a proper code generator (which can be alternatively written in a simpler scripting langauge). In any case it is never comparable to the entier C parser proper.

OpenD, a D language fork that is open to your contributions
D is completely opensource already (https://github.com/dlang/dmd). The "open" of OpenD is just ADR saying that OpenD will be more open to new language features than D has historically been.

The OpenD Programming Language (fork of D)
The reference compiler, DMD, is open source: https://github.com/dlang/dmd
But they don't accept just any Pull Request or features the community submits, understandably. There's a process called DIP for language improvements: https://github.com/dlang/DIPs/blob/master/DIPs/README.md
However, by some accounts, it's really hard to get anything through.
Given D already has so many feature, I find that to be a good thing , to be honest, by not everyone agrees, of course.
