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.

Does anyone use the tablet as expected?
Probably 85% of what I do with it is within xochitl, the stock interface for taking notes. I don't use ddvk—it's too annoying to keep up to date—but I do use custom templates. (I'd love an official way to install templates and persist them across upgrades.) The reMarkable was a significant upgrade from my old paper notebooks, but I really missed the engineering-style grid paper I'd been using. So I made my own templates and use them. I wouldn't say I use custom templates because I'm upset with how the reMarkable is, but I wanted a little more than it gave by default.

It would be nice to have a built-in ruler option for those that use the tablet for STEM-related activities.
It's not quite the same, but I made a series of engineering grid templates with grid lines at inch and centimeter intervals (on different templates for imperial and metric).
-
I noticed that the "Grid small" isn't actually 5 x 5 mm but I need this to be exact. Pretty new to this so I don’t know how to find a Grid that fits this criteria. Any Advice ;
I found this. https://gitlab.com/asciiphil/remarkable-engineering/-/tree/master There are some other engineering templates out there.

What is your favourite templates?
My go-to is the ⅛ʺ grid engineering template. (I may be biased; I created it.)

Light grey small grid template?
Don't know if this'll work for you, but I adjusted the darkness on my engineering grid templates to a level that I thought looked good both on the device and exported. Adding custom templates can be a bit of a pain, but if you want to try, this might be a solution for you.

Late to the game
Here's the reMarkable wiki page on templates for easy clicking. I believe this is the white lines template and this is the engineering template you mentioned. (I made the engineering grid templates, so it makes me happy to see they're useful to other people, too.)

Remarkable 2 at University
I deal with this in a couple of ways. First, I use some custom templates with a title and date area at the top of the page. I write both in thick ballpoint pen, which is readable from the page overview. That lets me skim through all my pages and find particular ones I'm looking for.

E-ink is so Retropunk
> As much as I love the hacker spirit of cracking open hardware and software and bending it to your will (whether or not it was designed towards that end), I enjoy my reMarkable precisely because I can get away from the ubiquity of computing and needing to constantly tinker with and repair software.
Personally I completely agree with you, and could have written almost exactly that paragraph - I too have a ReMarkable (the 2nd / current version), and love using it as it ships for both note taking and especially for reading ebooks/PDFs ("especially" just because it's what I use it for more, not because that's what it's better at - in fact, it's UI for reading documents is among its weaker points and I hope they improve it in future software updates).
However it's worth pointing out that you can SSH into it, and there are a fair few 3rd party tools and hacks for it - so far I've avoided trying any of them as there's nothing that I want enough to have even a 1% risk of bricking it to worry about. But I'm tempted to start playing around with it someday.
This is the best list of stuff for the ReMarkable that I'm aware of, though I don't know how complete it is / how many released tools or guides there might be that aren't included here:

Just bought a reMarkable - quite UNremarkable
There are options for USB/wifi syncing and lots of other community mods if you're handy with a terminal: https://github.com/reHackable/awesome-reMarkable

Dumb questions
If you follow the instructions and you are fine to turn automatic updates off, you may have a lool at awesome-remarkable https://github.com/reHackable/awesome-reMarkable

My First reMarkable will be arriving sometime today! What are some things or tips and tricks I should know?
This sentence doesn't make sense. People apply hacks because they want to make full use of their device. reMarkable has shortcomings, yes, but they can be overcome with the software that others have written. The Awesome reMarkable link the sidebar was basically a founding document of this very subreddit.

created templates disappeared after update
Use a software to manage your templates automatically. See the Awesome reMarkable list, and Ctrl-F "templates".

If I broke or lost my ReMarkable 2, would I be able to download all the old notes onto a new one?
You can also take backups using easy, convenient, community-written software, like RCU (which I'm the author of), reMy, reMarkable HyUtilities, rmExplorer, rmAPI, and many others found in the Awesome reMarkable list.

Big note files - timeout on usb webserver export
You could try reMy, which has its own renderer. There are more rendering programs in the Awesome reMarkable list, many of which will work with 2.15 and below--just avoid anything saying 'cloud' or 'web UI'.
