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

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.

Nix: The Breaking Point
I don't think so. The article is probably intended for the Nix community, so the author doesn't need to convince HN that something is going on. If as an outsider you are interested then you need to look into it yourself, the community has no obligation to make their internal conflicts legible to the outside world.
As an outsider myself, it certainly looks like something is going on as more than 20 Nixpkg maintainers left in a week: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues?q=label%3A%228.has%3...

NixOS Is Not Reproducible
Yes, Nix doesn't actually ensure that the builds are deterministic. In fact it works just fine if they aren't. There are packages in nixpkgs that aren't reproducible: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aiss...

The xz attack shell script
I'm not familiar with Bazel, but Nix in it's current form wouldn't have solved this attack. First of all, the standard mkDerivation function calls the same configure; make; make install process that made this attack possible. Nixpkgs regularly pulls in external resources (fetchUrl and friends) that are equally vulnerable to a poisoned release tarball. Checkout the comment on the current xz entry in nixpkgs https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/tools/comp...

Debian Git Monorepo
NixOS uses a monorepo and I think everyone's love it.
I love being able to easily grep through all the packages source code and there's regularly PRs that harmonizes conventions across many packages.
Nixpkgs doesn't include the packaged software source code, so it's a lot more practical than what Debian is doing.

From xz to ibus: more questionable tarballs
In this specific case, nix uses fetchFromGitHub to download the source archive, which are generated by GitHub for the specified revision[1]. Arch seems to just download the tarball from the releases page[2].
