Most interesting Dependents

Prompted by a toot from @pboling https://mastodon.social/@galtzo@ruby.social/114938569167700216

> Is there a tool that crawls the /network/dependents of a project on GitHub looking for corporate usage that should be targeted for sponsorship solicitations?

We have the data in the https://repos.ecosyste.ms/ dependencies table, but no good view of it at the moment, partially because it's not easy to index a 3TB, 23 billion row table so easily.

I previously experimented with https://github.com/ecosyste-ms/radar for this purpose, but never got round to deploying it.

I've also spoken to people who would like to use the kind of data to run a kind of reverse-dependabot, to test new releases of their libraries on some of the most important downstream users to make sure they aren't breaking them.

I also spoke to @Amir-Montazery from https://ostif.org/ about using some of this data as well, so there's definitely interest, we just need to work out the most efficient way to extract it without crashing the db machine (yes I know it needs an upgrade, it's on the list!)
