On community (issue response, PR reviews and discussion health), reddit is clearly ahead of Affinity. On reach (how visible the ecosystem is beyond its own repos), Affinity is ahead of reddit. On momentum (release cadence and how fast the ecosystem moves), reddit is clearly ahead of Affinity.

Affinity carries 4 GitHub stars across 40 public repos, with 1 repositories active in the last 90 days and 2 external contributors on record. reddit shows 4,004 stars across 174 public repos, 26 active in the last 90 days and 16 external contributors.
