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.

Bad Emacs Defaults
Heh, I recently did a "clean sweep" of my .emacs files (inspired by the new support for `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/config/emacs/init.el` in 27.1) and something like 90% of it was workarounds (some dating back to the late 1990s, for example a "vertical-motion-fix" for something that was fixed in emacs 19.29)
I definitely recommend doing some form of "dotfile bankruptcy" every 20 years or so :-)
(I also ended up doing a crude "load-file-literate" so that now most of my elisp is actually markdown, inspired by https://github.com/skx/dotfiles )

Bikeshedding Friday: How do you organize your init file?
I keep meaning to explore using org-mode for this. At the moment I have a trivial init.el which loads a literate markdown file init.md.

Noweb – A Simple, Extensible Tool for Literate Programming
I keep meaning to experiment with bable/tangle in Emacs.
I setup a simple literate configuration of my init file via markdown, which worked out really well, but doing it "properly" in org-mode would be a nice evolution.
With markdown I just search for code-blocks, write them all sequentially to a temporary buffer and evaluate once done. So it is very simplistic, but also being able to write and group things is useful:

What parts of your config do you like best?
~/.emacs.d/init.el the helper, which loads/executes it.

Bad Emacs Defaults
Another option is to use ws-butler[0], which only deletes trailing whitespace on lines you've edited. This way you don't create spurious diffs on version controlled files (future `git blame` users will thank you).

Alternative to ws-butler
The rep on GitHub seems to be dead. Last commit was 2020.

Fix for Invalid Syntax errors in Python Org Mode source blocks
Perhaps not quite the solution (but maybe it is) - have a look at something like https://github.com/lewang/ws-butler or similar whitespace-cleanup packages. Also as others noted making sure org-src-preserve-indentation is set.

How to "use-package" with eglot, python-mode and company-mode?
I have some more examples; e.g. the ws-buttler. Do I start it that way? (use-package ws-butler :init (progn (add-hock 'python-mode-hook 'ws-butler-mode)))
