The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
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.

Given how powerful Emacs is and how important it has been for my computing over the past four decades, I think it would be more useful to me for people to label all non-emacs articles [Not Emacs]
you might want to check remacs, a rewrite of emacs in Rust.

What would you rewrite in Rust?
Emacs. There's Remacs… well, there was Remacs. It seems the project has fizzled out.

How do the neovim plugins for OrgMode and Magit compare with the real thing?
Yeah most likely they won't mature at all. Many of the emacs-ng folks were doing an incremental Rust rewrite called Remacs before abandoning that. It's great to see these people having fun, but I wouldn't bet on them to be around in the long term.

Emacs as a universal front-end interface
There are alternative Emacs-like editors implemented in better languages like Common Lisp like Climacs which seem to be no longer maintained, there have been attempts at rewriting Emacs in Guile Scheme like Guile Emacs which have fizzled out, there are more recent attempts at implementing Emacs in Rust which isn't even a Lisp. I am really hoping Guile Emacs or Climacs see a resurrection, that or some other Lisp-based Emacs clone comes along that manages to supplant GNU Emacs. If more people would put efforts into projects like these, Emacs as a platform would be so much better than something like Electron.

Just showing off how nice lisp can look in prism-mode. Check reply for the config :)
Heh, seriously, though, it's not necessary to use a rainbow of colors. You can use any number of colors and rotate through them. For example, this uses just 3 colors, gradually desaturating them as the depth increases. Since each color is easily distinguished from the other 2, it makes code very readable: https://github.com/alphapapa/prism.el/raw/master/images/parens-0.5.png

How do I build a syntax highlighter based on S-Expressions?
If you can use tree-sitter, that's obviously a good choice. Alternatively, you can see how I implemented https://github.com/alphapapa/prism.el, which isn't regexp-based, using Emacs's built-in syntax parsing instead.
-
Trying to find a package that colorizes file contents by indentation level.
I did some experimenting with supporting XML directly in https://github.com/alphapapa/prism.el/issues/16. It seems that it's not easily done with existing Emacs SGML-related functions, but I'm guessing that tree-sitter will help a lot in Emacs 29.

How to combine highlight-parenthesis with rainbow-delimiters?
It's not exactly what you asked for, but you may also find this useful: https://github.com/alphapapa/prism.el It can highlight parens distinctly too.
-
Change text appearance in buffer
As examples, I can recommend code in https://github.com/alphapapa/highlight-function-calls (simple) and https://github.com/alphapapa/prism.el (more complex).

How to properly font-lock for a custom major-mode aka how to use complex regex?
The best advice I can offer is to carefully and repeatedly study the Elisp manual section on font-lock, and to model on the source code of a similar project. The most I've done with it is in https://github.com/alphapapa/prism.el
