On reach (how visible the ecosystem is beyond its own repos), IFTTT is clearly ahead of Adyen. On momentum (release cadence and how fast the ecosystem moves), Adyen is clearly ahead of IFTTT.

Adyen carries 2,684 GitHub stars across 65 public repos, with 49 repositories active in the last 90 days and 39 external contributors on record. IFTTT shows 15,307 stars across 75 public repos, 1 active in the last 90 days and 2 external contributors.
