We are dealing with limited information here, and GitHub makes it easy to see at a glance what folks are doing on a project. It just so happens it focuses on presenting commits and lines of code written.

Everyone knows it's not the best metric but to get a high level overview of activity those stats work. Especially when the person I was replying to said LV is maybe moving slow due to a lack of manpower. Those numbers show the opposite (LV has more folks working on the project than LiveWire, despite it being much less popular due to Elixir being a smaller niche than PHP).

I don't think it's fair to jump to any conclusions about the quality of either code bases.
