Yeah, to be honest I'm looking for ways to make the list more useful, but it's not that easy.
I'd love a way to track "popularity", but only 64% of the tools are on Github, so we can track their star counts, and less than half are installed via Homebrew or npm, which could let us track their install numbers.
Another option would be to let users say which tool(s) they use and calculate popularity based on that, but probably some tool authors would tell their community to go and vote for them and the result would be a ranking by which community is most engaged...
Open to ideas! :)
