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.

Using TAR files in ESP32 with SD applications for easy multiple file transfers
I am engineering a watch to play home videos of my children on my wrist - my Reflections project. I need an easy way to move multiple files from a Cloud based service to the watch. tar) and GZip are widely used standards to build and compress an archive of binary (for example, movies and sound files) and text (for example, JSON encoded procedural scripting command) files. Using tar I simplify my code to move one tar file instead of multiple individual files. The ESP32-targz library combines uzlib and TinyUntar to decompress and inflate tar files and works well with Arduino IDE 1.8.13, ESP32, and an SD card. This is my developer’s journal of the problems that I encountered and the work-arounds I used.

Ask HN: Why is it so hard to download podcasts?
Many people have given their "why," but I'll give another "how".
castget¹ is a simple tool that does exactly what you want, just add a feed URL and it pulls all the episodes. It has a nice catchup mode so you can add feeds that you've listened to elsewhere without pulling all the old episodes too. hpodder² is another tool I've used in the past, but I can't remember why I switched.
Depending on how much you like cobbling together your own solution html-xml-utils³ makes it incredibly easy to script a solution. For example, "curl feed | hxselect -c -s '\n' 'enclosure::attr(url)'" would list just the URLs. feedparser⁴ is a battle tested solution for processing feeds if you'd prefer a proper solution over a hacky shell script.

Episode 130: Arcade Fire Is Canceled, Student Loans Are Canceled, Everyone Is Canceled
Personally, I use castget to save everything locally and then sync it to my phone and play the files with AudioAnchor, but my methods are rather eccentric.

Episode 85: We Have A Big Announcement And We're Celebrating With A Book Burning (With Kat Rosenfield)
Something about the substack migration created a hiccup with the RSS feed that caused castget to download a bunch of duplicate files with slightly different names. I can sort them out by timestamp, but some of them aren't duplicates... :-/
What are some alternatives?
ESP32-targz - 🗜️ An Arduino library to unpack/uncompress tar, gz, and tar.gz files on ESP32 and ESP8266
spotifeed - A simple service to serve up Spotify podcasts as RSS feeds for use in any podcast app.
zlib-ng - zlib replacement with optimizations for "next generation" systems.
MuditaOS - Mobile operating system based on FreeRTOS™ optimized for E Ink displays - developed for Mudita Pure minimalist phone
sent - a simple plaintext presentation tool
uncap - Map Caps Lock to Escape or any key to any key
Stm32-FatFs-Gzip - This project offers a simplified compressor that produces Gzip-compatible output with small resources for microcontrollers and edge computers. He uses the very basic LZ77 compression algorithm and static Deflate Huffman tree encoding to compress / decompress data into Gzip files.
TinyUntar - A tiny untar library written in C.
Owin.Compression - Compression (Deflate / GZip) module for Microsoft OWIN filesystem pipeline. Works with Selfhost and also on AspNetCore.
eiwd - iwd without dbus -- maintained fork of original dylanaraps/eiwd
pycopy - Pycopy - a minimalist and memory-efficient Python dialect. Good for desktop, cloud, constrained systems, microcontrollers, and just everything.
flate2-rs - DEFLATE, gzip, and zlib bindings for Rust
