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.

T2 System Development Environment
> T2 SDE is not just a regular Linux distribution - it is a flexible Open Source System Development Environment or Distribution Build Kit. Others might even name it Meta Distribution. T2 allows the creation of custom distributions with state of the art technology, up-to-date packages and integrated support for cross compilation. Currently the Linux kernel is usually used, but we also started to port T2 to support compiling home-brew like open source package add-ons on macOS, other BSDs, classic Unix systems (Irix, ...) or support bootstrapping alternative micro kernel systems (like a L4 variant or Fuchsia). Similarly building Haiku, Android, Minix, Hurd, Open (or Pure) Darwin, Haiku and OpenBSD could be supported, too.

Epic T2 Linux 24.5 released for 24 architectures and IA-64 Itanium
T2 Linux 24.5 "Future Nostalgia" was released.
A major milestone update shipping full support for 25 CPU architectures, and severalC libraries. Support for cross compiling was further improved for Rust, ADA, ObjC,Fortran, and Go!
This is also the first major release with Intel IA-64 Itanium support restored and fully supported. Additionally many X.org 1 DDX drivers were fixed and tested to work again as well as full support for latest KDE 6 and GNOME 46.
T2 is known for its sophisticated cross compile support as well as supporting nearly all existing CPU architectures: Alpha, Arc, ARM(64), Avr32, HPPA(64), IA64, M68k, MIPS(64), Nios2, PowerPC(64)(le), RISCV(64), s390x, SPARC(64), SuperH x86(64) T2 is an increasingly popular choice for Embedded systems, virtualization and still supporting the Sony PS3, Sgi, Sun and HP workstations as well as latest ARM64, RISCV64. https://t2sde.org

Smallest distros for old hardware
Other option may be to custom build a system for it using something like T2SDE

Collecting opinions for best PPC distro
T2 Linux is a distro. That Apple and then some other people named their project like that 10 years later is not our fault ;-) https://t2sde.org Also nobody will be interested in Apple's unimportant Intel Macs soon anymore anyway, ... ;-)

t2 Linux now support latest Firefox on i586 CPUs!
life is too fast? you want to slow down and digital detox? Vintage or Retro hardware? t2 Linux now got you covered with support for Firefox on CPUs as low as i586 on an otherwise i486 supporting distribution: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lGxg8BmV55k (they actually support 24 CPU architectures, basically everything between ARM and RISCV64 https://t2sde.org ;-)

Looking for a unique distro!
T2SDE is a very powerful distro/meta-distro that offers a lot of choice. The architecture support is insane and you can build & crossbuild systems like PS3, Dreamcast & tiny embedded sysyems alongside all the usual stuff.

What is the appeal of Gentoo?
T2SDE has a huge scope and is linux only at the moment but seems like the most likely place to see a new linux/bsd hybrid appear.

Pkl, a Programming Language for Configuration
> So what we are missing now is a 500GB framework that can write the config file for the programming language that is writing a config file for the actual program I wish to use.
That exists since 1960. It's called LISP. The e.g. https://guix.gnu.org/ uses with great success, the Guile Scheme dialect of LISP, to be precise. And FYI the "framework" is:
$ ls --human-readable --size $(readlink $(which guile))

NixOS: Declarative Builds and Deployments
> inventing a brand new purely functional language programming language.
ISTM that if you dislike that, then there's GUIX.
https://guix.gnu.org/
Very briefly, AFAICT, it's "Nix but using Scheme".

Linux saved my life
And just wait till you discover Arch Linux, Gentoo, Guix, or NixOS.

The nicest web browser of 2023 uses Lisp.
https://guix.gnu.org for example. It did load before an update but it doesn't anymore.

Java community welcomes kotlin, c/c++ community welcome rust and go and Javascript community welcomes typscript except emacs community who still refuse to welcome gnu guile.
Is it? Seems to me it's used for some pretty cool stuff, heard of Guix?

Lua: The Little Language That Could
I think a "competitor" to Lua would be Guile [1], but I am not sure if it gets close to Lua in terms of lightweightness... it was designed to be used in the GNU project, with similar objects as Lua: to be light, easily embeddable. It's a Scheme (Lisp) so maybe not for everyone's taste... its "coolest" use i know of is for configuring Guix [2] (the GNU version of Nix).

What are some of the more innovative linux distributions?
GNU Guix! A fully functional package manager and distro heavily inspire by Nix. The primary difference between it and Nix being that it is almost entirely written and configured in GNU Guile, an implementation of Scheme (Lisp) and the official extension language of the GNU Project (originally intended to be for GNU what emacs lisp is for emacs).

Rust Offline?
You should perhaps utilize guix for your projects. It provides rather acceptable rust resp. crates support and in a perfectly reproducible build environment. But be aware, that it even tries to build even the rust compiler from source by going through all this nasty steps of its iterative bootstrap process. This can be a little bit complex and time-consuming, if you need an up-to-date version of rustc.
What are some alternatives?
nix - Nix, the purely functional package manager
raylib - A simple and easy-to-use library to enjoy videogames programming
live-bootstrap - Use of a Linux initramfs to fully automate the bootstrapping process
Sauce - operating system crafting.
ungoogled-chromium - Google Chromium, sans integration with Google
Aalbus - The master repository for the Aalbus distribution
steam-runtime - A runtime environment for Steam applications
stm32-lis302dl - Provides the LIS302DL driver, part of the STM32Cube BSP Component for all STM32xx series.
ublue - A familiar(ish) Ubuntu desktop for Fedora Silverblue.
meta-raspberrypi - Yocto/OE BSP layer for the Raspberry Pi boards
flatpak - Linux application sandboxing and distribution framework
