We could probably remove the Stack Overflow section from the template, since Stack Overflow doesn't display the total count of questions but only the 500 results in a paginated fashion. Also, it's difficult to count since there are tags that include these tags eg. gRPC-protobuff, gRPC, gRPCio ,etc. @kinlane If you think it makes sense, I could raise a PR with the modified template.

Regarding the template, wouldn't it be more useful as a reader to see all these updates grouped as specs. The specs as I view them complement each other, and as audience I would be interested in the specs I'm using or plan to use, so viewing updates group by spec would be easier to scroll through and learn than a comparison between the specs I personally think. @kinlane ?
