One of the problems I see with stars on github is the extreme hype around new JS frameworks, which is especially noticable in GitTrends. These projects are indeed trendy, but when you try to choose a tool / technology stars become problematic. I'm not saying that the metric I propose is more "objective" in any sense, but in my subjective opinion it promotes better values for open source projects.

Moreover, please don't think that I only count commits and see the about page (http://www.krihelinator.xyz/about) for more details about the metric.

Thank you back for the positive feedback!

Someone already reported that commercially-funded projects get high in the list (https://github.com/Nagasaki45/krihelinator/issues/100). I'll need to think what to do about it...

Wow! this is realy nice. The languages list looks quite similar to the one on the Krihelinator (http://www.krihelinator.xyz/languages), which is encouraging for both projects, I believe :-)

It's a bug :-)

Already reported (https://github.com/Nagasaki45/krihelinator/issues/99) and will be handled soon.

The way contribution rate is calculated is documented in the about page (http://www.krihelinator.xyz/about). I hope that it answers your question.

In general, it seems that just from reading the term "contribution rate" several people predict that it only count commits. Commits have the least weight in the calculation. The number of contributors are much more important as well as number of issues and pull requests.

That sounds horrible! It's definitely not me

I agree, that's why the number of contributors in the last week have the most weight in the metric. See the about page (http://krihelinator.xyz/about) for more details.
