If there are competing projects that I am unfamiliar with, stars count and last commit date decide which I try using first. If it works, I go with it.

I may star both repos in case an issue comes up and I need to try something else. I use stars to “save” repos so I can find them later if I forget the names.

I am a bootstrapped founder and I find this to be the quickest approach.
