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.

Help with designing a reversible choc hotswappable PCB
I found these repositories pretty useful https://github.com/tzarc/reversible-kicad https://github.com/ebastler/marbastlib https://github.com/foostan/kbd https://github.com/keebio/Keebio-Parts.pretty and as u/ComBlockWither wrote: you can also use other peoples boards.

Recommendations for a 34 key split keyboard?
Baby Groot Keyboard ( https://github.com/sadekbaroudi/bgkeeb ) Fits in the cheap 100mm*100mm offers with most PCB manufacturers.
-
Cheapino: the cheapest split?
technically, cheapest for several fab shops is if you can get PCB under 100mm × 100mm (ex. Cheapis and bgkeeb)
-
Is this layout dumb?
as a comparison, bgkeeb is another 100×100mm board that manages to fit everything in using MX spacing
-
What are the best designs to cheap out? E.g. Reviung34 only needs 1 controller.
https://github.com/sadekbaroudi/bgkeeb should be fairly cheap to produce. I ordered some from JLC and they cost about 4$. Plates came in at 6$ although you could probably just solder the switches without a plate.

my new bgkeeb is great fun
There is a choc supported version, although I'm not sure it's choc spaced: https://github.com/sadekbaroudi/bgkeeb/releases/tag/v2.0-choc
