On momentum (release cadence and how fast the ecosystem moves), LinkedIn is clearly ahead of Fillout.

Fillout carries 2 GitHub stars across 9 public repos, with 3 repositories active in the last 90 days and 3 external contributors on record. LinkedIn shows 77,785 stars across 137 public repos, 28 active in the last 90 days and 52 external contributors.
