Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/Mintplex-Labs/anything-llm/issues/3059

Description

Including the trendshift, starchart, and contributor list graphics in the README feels somewhat extraneous. GitHub already provides contributor information, and star histories offer little insight into a project's practical usability or code quality. The trendshift link, too, appears more as a badge of fleeting popularity than substantive data. Ultimately, these additions risk distracting from the essential information users seek (clear documentation, robust functionality, and genuine utility) suggesting a focus on superficialness over inherent project value.
