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.

boost::unordered standalone
That's deprecated. Use https://github.com/martinus/unordered_dense instead And yes, tell use if it's any better(it should)

Is there an accepted way to order qualifiers?
No, I've deprecated it because the code has become a mess, I rewrote it quite differently and with much higher code quality and more features here: https://github.com/martinus/unordered_dense

Effortless Performance Improvements in C++: std::unordered_map
When no ordering is necessary and the number of elements is larger than 20, nothing beats https://github.com/martinus/unordered_dense (for general use).

Effortless Performance Improvements in C++: std:unordered_map
https://github.com/martinus/unordered_dense
Check this one out, it's a successor to this idea. Boost also introduced a very performant flat_hash_map in 1.81

Fuzzing is Cool, Actually
I have an API fuzz test for a hash map here: https://github.com/martinus/unordered_dense/blob/main/test/fuzz/api.cpp

Macro to automatically unlock a mutex in a block (ansi c)
This technique is often used to implement RAII in C. See example in Standard Template Containers. The library delivers STL-like functionality to C.

Is using void* considered "evil" in C just as it is in C++?
I'd say it's evil, but quite understandable very commonly used because there are no built-in alternatives in C. I basically never use void* in user-code, simply because there are no need for it when using a templating technique, like in my STC library. Even in the implementation of STC itself, void* is hardly used, if at all.

[Noob Question] How do C programmers get around not having hash maps?

Should I use templates or stick with rewriting code?
This is more or less how C-ish templates are implemented in STC library.

What’s the right hash table API?
As the author of a STL-like templated C container library, I had many of the exact same thoughts when implementing the unordered map. In fact, I also changed to many of the suggestions here, rather than consistently following the C++ umap API. E.g.

What's the fastest high level language?
Sure it is. C misses a proper efficient generic standard/container library, like my https://github.com/stclib/STC, but that is irrelevant.

So what's the best data structures and algorithms library for C?
Some data structure and algorithm library in C enable the (optional) separation between the interface of the container (which is expanded in your header) and its implementation (which is expanded in your source), like STC.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing unordered_dense and STC you can also consider the following projects:
robin-map - C++ implementation of a fast hash map and hash set using robin hood hashing
ctl - The C Template Library
robin-hood-hashing - Fast & memory efficient hashtable based on robin hood hashing for C++11/14/17/20
mlib - Library of generic and type safe containers in pure C language (C99 or C11) for a wide collection of container (comparable to the C++ STL).
unordered - Boost.org unordered module
Klib - A standalone and lightweight C library
flat_hash_map - A very fast hashtable
ctl - My variant of the C Template Library
parallel-hashmap - A family of header-only, very fast and memory-friendly hashmap and btree containers.
CommonC - Common utilities for C
hashtable-benchmarks - An Evaluation of Linear Probing Hashtable Algorithms
