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.

- ZFS took full backup (send/receive) without snapshots but now what to prevent another full transfer?

ZFS for Dummies
I’m on the other end of the spectrum. I like knowing the flags and settings I use to create the pools.
For snapshots and replication take a look at sanoid (https://github.com/jimsalterjrs/sanoid).

Automatic container snapshots? cv4pve or zfs for a small homelab?
I use a combo of PBS and ZFS with Sanoid. The ZFS snapshots are nice because you define it all in a config file with frequent, hourly, daily, weekly, monthly snaps retained however you want. Importantly I use that on the root pool as well as my data pools. With PBS I have a custom retention config and have it backing up VMs and LXCs every couple hours. The PBS dedupe functionality makes it possible to keep full backups going back ages with minimal storage consumption, just the changed blocks. PBS is running inside a VM yes, but it’s storage is on another pool.

New to ZFS, what layout to choose for 4x20TB drives?
No, it's written by the developer of Sanoid and Syncoid. The foremost open source ZFS snapshotting tool. He contributes on this sub all the time.

Some questions about the limitations of ZFS send.
Hi there! Not so much to answer your questions, but are you aware of Sanoid and syncoid? It does backup and remote Sync in the most seamless way. Perhaps this would solve some of your concerns...

Void Linux and root-on-ZFS question
Lastly there is zrepl. This is an automatic snapshot creation, pruning and replication daemon. It lets you automate the creation of ZFS snapshots at specific intervals, apply a retention policy to them, and replicate them out to a remote system with ZFS, like a NAS with TrueNAS on it.

How do you all prepare for a disaster recovery of your nextcloud instance?
I run it in a FreeBSD jail and take frequent ZFS snapshots using zrepl. I’ve had to restore after failed updates and it worked flawlessly.

Recommend ZFS automation scripts for off-server backups?
As others have noted, I use syncoid but zrepl is an alternative that could be considered.

Question about best way to do zfs replication to a friends server
Current idea: We offer some form of container each other, where we have that zvol mounted somewhere for the replication use. This would mean that I could create an "inside zfs" where I create a filebased zpool. How is performance on a filebased zpool? (Although it is technically not so important that it performs critically, just trying to find the - or one of - "best" ways). Then we would offer each an ssh endpoint into that container (It doesn't have to be ssh, but it is so far convenient to setup and resilient to be open to the public). And my current plan is to use zrepl (https://zrepl.github.io/) to organise replication from my home server to this "inside" zpool.
