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.

Is the UI open-source, and if so, where can I find it?
probably this repo https://github.com/gl-inet/gli-pub

Captive Portals
The firmware is a huge mess and it's especially unfortunate that there seems to be some undocumented custom drivers or something else I haven't been able to identify yet which is missing from upstream OpenWRT, making it unusable for certain of their devices.
The gl.inet firwmare itself has a lot of missing updates and I am yet to successfully make custom builds of it (though in theory it should be possible through what's on their public Github repos, save for a handful of packages they provide as binary-only)
I should have taken better notes on building a firmware but I think what eventually allowed me to replicate and make custom build was to just build as if a normal openwrt dist from https://github.com/gl-inet/openwrt with a fork of https://github.com/gl-inet/gli-pub. Ended up ditching their custom hacky wireguard/tor functionality and mostly treating it as an openwrt dist.
The mwan3 stuff can be worth keeping and extending on using the uci module, though.

Hidden Networks in TP-Link Routers
I will! Without the sketchy cloud stuff, the only thing I found so far was stuff like this, which I remove myself but is fully understandable - if you want to do connectivity-checking on devices used in Mainland China you don't have much options otherwise.

Wireless-to-Ethernet island for RPi cluster: IPv6, NDP proxy, mDNS reflector
By extracting the firmware^1 one can see that GL.inet provides a cloud storage service. This is opt-in. It is not enabled by default. The cloud storage has a telemetry address listed in /etc/config/glbigdata. Perhaps one could probably use the service and change "telemetry.googcloud.xyz" to the loopback or delete it. No idea as I do not use cloud storage.

With default configs IME one will see some constant traffic to 8.8.8.8. This is from OpenWRT mwan3's default configs. These defaults are left unchanged by GL.inet and probably other routers running OpenWRT. I have never seen anyone complain about this traffic. I doubt this is what is being referred to as "telemetry" in the above comment. Nevertheless, it is constant pinging to Google, OpenDNS or some other third party. In typical Linux fashion, mwan3, a daemon not every user is going to need, is enabled by default anyway.

What are some alternatives?
openwrt - This repository is fork from openwrt official repo, we will update the latest tag and release GL.iNet firmware based on it.
odhcp6c - This repository is a mirror of https://git.openwrt.org/?p=project/odhcp6c.git. It is for reference only and is not active for checks-ins or reporting issues; issues should be reported at: https://bugs.openwrt.org. Pull requests will be accepted which will be merged in odhcp6c.git
