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.

0.11.0 Release Notes
I don't know about "daily" right now (I've had to take a break due to obligations), but I'm working on a modern implementation of the Self programming language with actor capabilities: https://github.com/sin-ack/zigself
It's nowhere near usable yet, but Zig has been a joy to work with for over a year, and I can definitely see myself using it for a big piece of software.

Erlang's not about lightweight processes and message passing
> Creating a language with the feel of a lisp, the environment of Smalltalk, and the concurrency of Erlang has been my dream for a long time.
I'm trying to eventually accomplish something like this: https://github.com/sin-ack/zigself
It's an implementation of the Self programming language in Zig, with an actor model inspired by Erlang.
The main thing to realize is that Lisp and Smalltalk are very much symmetrical in terms of structure. There is no real distinction between the two other than syntax and basic computation unit (closures vs. objects). And even closures can be used as objects and vice versa.
That only leaves the concurrency model. I have a basic implementation of actors using objects as the "context". It still has a long way to go to reach the supervisor tree model of Erlang, but interestingly enough, the ideas in the article are reflected here heavily; behaviorism is at the core of Self.

Spinkube: Running WASM in Kubernetes
This reminds me of Lunatic [1], an Erlang-inspired runtime for WebAssembly. Unfortunately it seems like development stalled some months ago.

Spin 2.0 – open-source tool for building and running WASM apps
you can check out https://github.com/lunatic-solutions/lunatic for that

Flawless – Durable execution engine for Rust
Very cool, and the approach demonstrated might be of interest to a similar problem we have in Ambient (our WASM game runtime that has competing processes that may need to retry interactions.)
That being said - what’s the relation to Lunatic [0]? Are you still working on Lunatic? Is this a side project? Or is it something completely separate?

Async Rust Is A Bad Language
Curious too. I follow Lunatic [0] as a candidate for future use, and also wasmCloud [1].

Elixir and Rust is a good mix
There's a couple of Rust libs and frameworks inspired on Erlang in 'best of both worlds' attempts, such as https://lunatic.solutions
I found others like Lunatic before, but cannot remember right now.

Anything close beam/otp for other languages?
There is a really good initiative called Lunatic : https://lunatic.solutions/
What are some alternatives?
