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.

The Ultimate Conditional Syntax
Looks very similar to lambda zero syntax (https://github.com/clark800/lambda-zero):
def getNaturalName(tag, globals)

Uiua: A minimal stack-based, array-based language
Reminds me a bit of Cognate(https://github.com/cognate-lang/cognate/blob/master/INTRODUC...)
Think I would like Uiua more if it require a space between terms. It wouldn’t be quite as tacit but it would be easier to read and more flexible — you could multi-symbol operators.

Two esoteric but maybe useful language ideas
Cognate happens to be a simple & readable polish-notation stack language that compiles to C.

Flow - a little language I've been working on
This reminds me a lot of Cognate.

July 2022 monthly "What are you working on?" thread
Since discovering and being inspired by Cognate, I've begun work on somewhat of a sister language called Adduce, with u/stavro-mueller-beta's blessing. It's honestly been kind of a whirlwind so far - over the course of about a week, I threw together a hacky Javascript interpreter to sketch out my ideas for the language, then rewrote it in Haskell for more permanent development. The language is currently in a mostly working state, though missing a lot of features; the biggest pain points so far have been mostly related to scoping and exception handling, since I'm implementing a dynamically typed, interpreted, mostly-procedural language in a language that is very much neither, and I'd give a tentative guess that just figuring out how to make the latter work at all took over half the development time of the Haskell version so far.

What are some alternatives?
When comparing lambda-zero and cognate you can also consider the following projects:
epilepsy - A functional language for C99 preprocessor metaprogramming [Moved to: https://github.com/Hirrolot/metalang99]
uiua - A tacit array programming language
mlscript - The MLscript programming language. Functional and object-oriented; structurally typed and sound; with powerful type inference. Soon to have full interop with TypeScript!
