I ran across this site a few years ago and I've used it since then to find active forks: https://techgaun.github.io/active-forks/index.html https://techgaun.git

  Nice. I wonder whether the posted tool offers any more data since this tool is instantaneous and the posted one is slow. It would be great to know, for example, "commits ahead of". EDIT: found a few! [1] is easiest to use. For [2] you need to give it a github access token.

    it does! although the reason I use a different strategy is not for more data, but for better data. see this comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28984305 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28984305

      I think "commits ahead" and "commits behind" are more useful in ascertaining active forks than the most recent push time.
