I don't. I look at the documentation and at the source code. If it isn't up to par, it's junk regardless of how many stars it has.

- dominotw 10y agoYea ofcourse. I am just saying that stars == good correlation is really strong.
- bsder 10y agoAnd we're saying, "No, it's not." A project with lots of stars and rare commits is almost never better than one with a less stars but low-grade continuous activity. "Date of last commit" is probably FAR higher than any "social" bullshit in terms of quality.
- Sir_Substance 10y ago>"Date of last commit" is probably FAR higher than any "social" bullshit in terms of quality. That's the first thing I look at when I arrive on a github page, always.
- dominotw 10y agoI am obviously not talking about dead projects.
