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.

Nano98: Windows 98 that boots and runs under 5MB
I don't think this argument holds much substance. FOSS developers are absolutely not lost without the source - they just share the fruit of their labor under FOSS licenses. In fact there's a good chunk of work being done black-box style: WINE, many of the drivers, game modding, hell here's a random FOSS binary patcher[0]. So FOSS developers don't seem to be lost without the source.

What's the Most Portable Way to Include Binary Blobs in an Executable?
My team is working on this problem in the context of creating Node.js single-executable applications. While the naive approach of just appending data at the end of the binary works, it is not friendly with code-signature in macOS and Windows given that signing operates on PE and Mach-O sections.
We have recently open-sourced a small tool called Postject (https://github.com/postmanlabs/postject), which is able to inject arbitrary data as proper ELF/Mach-O/PE sections for all major operating systems (with AIX support coming). The tool also provides C/C++ cross-platform headers for easily traversing the final binary and introspect whether the segment is present or not.
The tool is based on the LIEF (https://github.com/lief-project/LIEF) project.
At Postman, we are making use of this on our custom Node.js single-executable applications and soon on our custom Electron.js builds too.

Collection of tools for executable packing detection
Bintropy: Entropy-based packing detection featuring multiple modes (whole binary, per section or segment). Based on the awesome LIEF library, therefore supports ELF, PE, Mach-O.

rabin2 for scraping ELF to JSON
I've been looking at LIEF toolkit for similar purposes (https://github.com/lief-project/LIEF). It's a python framework for cross platform binary analysis. I'm curious, does rabin2 support dll format?
What are some alternatives?
BDFProxy - Patch Binaries via MITM: BackdoorFactory + mitmProxy.
dll-proxy-generator - Creates a proxy dll which sits between the game and original dll
