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.

Simple Lasts Longer
This doesn't support the various consumer cloud storage APIs, but you've just reminded me of a project I ran into years ago that seems to still be around: https://remotestorage.io/
There's also Solid which attempts to do something similar: https://solidproject.org/

The current state of the Web and what is the next step in its evolution.
It is surprising to me this is not talked about more. I see little to none online news, podcasts, YouTube videos or anything else where this is discussed. I only found out about it because of research I did on Tim Berners-Lee in preparation for a Career Day talk at my kids middle school. Otherwise I would have probably not known about it still today. And even after I found out and started watching YouTube videos on the topic, YouTube won't even suggest any related videos about it even after already watching multiple videos on the subject (Web 3.0, Solid Project, Decentralized Web...etc).. is Big Tech trying to keep the web from evolving into what Sir Tim Berners-Lee is proposing?

Write libraries instead of services, where possible
It's only an unreasonable amount of work if you assume that the user is managing a separate storage backend for each library. If you take the Tim Berners-Lee approach (re: https://solidproject.org/) then each user is only managing one storage backend: the one that stores their data. The marginal cost of hooking in one more library low.
We just have to get a little more fed up with all of these services and then the initial cost of setting it up in the first place will be worth it. Any day now...

Manas: Storage servers confirming to Solid protocol
Solid is a web native protocol to enable interoperable, read-write, collaborative, and decentralized web, truer to web's original vision.

Manas: Solid protocol storage server in Rust for decentralized web
Manas project(https://github.com/manomayam/manas/tree/main) aims to create a modular framework and ecosystem to create correct, robust storage servers adhering to Solid protocol in rust.
[Solid](https://solidproject.org/) is a web native protocol to enable interoperable, read-write, collaborative, and decentralized web, truer to web's original vision.
Solid adds to existing Web standards to realise a space where individuals can maintain their autonomy, control their data and privacy, and choose applications and services to fulfil their needs.

My vision of the semantic web...correct me if I'm wrong.
You're describing Solid, not the Semantic Web. Granted, Solid uses Semantic technologies to achieve it. https://solidproject.org/

The problem with federated web apps
Tim Berners-Lee's Solid project is working on that. Put data in "pods" that are stored on pod servers, which are federated. You can self-host.
It could be a federated layer of identity & personal content decoupled from social platforms.

Do you believe Bitcoin’s idea of a distributed ledger is useful for databases other than the money database?
Other uses are extremely limited IMO. Microsoft ION, an implementation of decentralised identity w3c spec, for example. It makes a Bitcoin transaction containing a hash that refers to several identities. Since the identities are mutable there does not seem much value in remembering the hash at a point in time.

Codeberg a GitHub Alternative from Europe
I agree the website is very bad, currently. Maybe this page has better resources:
https://essif-lab.github.io/framework/docs/ssi-standards
But there's quite a lot going on... the work on SSI is being coordinated by the W3C Working Group on VCs (Verifiable Credentials) and DIDs (Decentralized Identifiers).
https://www.w3.org/community/credentials/
https://www.w3.org/2019/did-wg/
I don't know of any real-world usage yet, despite the fact that the specifications required for things to work and be used by real people already exist, and that there's a lot of DID methods (over 80 last I checked) registered, but as people have noted, most are based on blockchain (but not all... there's stuff like the peer, git, jwk DID methods that do not require blockchain)... but I have to say that, in this particular instance, blockchains may actually be a proper solution for a real problem (that of looking up public keys and metadata for entities/users in a distributed, highly-reliable manner).
https://www.w3.org/TR/did-spec-registries/#did-methods
If you want to look for related stuff, look for things that users would need to have to use SSI, like DID wallets... Some random examples I found by quickly searching:
https://www.abtwallet.io/en/
https://www.didwallet.io/
https://igrant.io/
https://www.dock.io/dock-wallet-app
https://identity.foundation/ion/
The OpenID Connect Standard is being extended to support self-issued OIDC (SIOP) which allows OIDC to interact with SSI constructs:
https://openid.net/specs/openid-connect-self-issued-v2-1_0.h...
So, yeah, there's a lot of stuff being created around SSI, but admitedly, almost nothing practical yet... Hence why I was hoping to find something where this work could be very helpful, like logging into Codeberg :)

How to get started learning web5
I would also recommend checking ION¹. I have tested a few DID Methods including Sovrin, Veres One, and ION, and the latter is the most spec-adherent and well-implemented, apart from receiving funding from companies like Microsoft and TBD (which is proposing web5 in the first place). And yes, it is the only DID Method to receive support from big tech (was incubated within Microsoft, then donated to the Decentralized Identity Foundation), and it also happens to be a technically good solution.

Jack Dorsey's idea of Web5 in relation to Stacks
Doing some more research: Looks like the idea is developed by tbd.website and uses a L2 tool called ION that utilizes the SideTree protocol. Interestingly, ION does not introduce a new token which I find interesting, and one of the things I've found confusing about Stacks.
- Anyone have any updates on the Microsoft Ion Digital ID layer on Bitcoin?
