+DESCRIPTION >
+    - `projects_list_for_top_projects_widget_ds` contains data specifically for the Top LF Projects widget.
+    - Created via the projects_list_for_top_projects_widget_copy pipe with the same filters that the frontend was applying before filtering by activity type.
+    - `id` is the primary key identifier for the project record.
+    - `name` and `slug` are basic project metadata fields.
+    - `logo` is the URL for the project logo.
+    - `contributorCount` is the computed contributor statistics from insights_projects_populated_ds.

+NODE projects_list_filtered_by_activity_types
+DESCRIPTION >
+    This is similar to the insightsProjects_filtered pipe but includes filtering for activity types,
+    which we don't have on the former, and some other hard-coded filters for the Top LF projects widget.
+    These have to be hard-coded because this is a copy pipe and thus, we can't use dynamic filtering.
+    This exists just for the aforementioned widget, because adding the activity type filtering to
+    insightsProjects_filtered could have too much of a performance hit, and that pipe is used in
+    a lot of other places, so we would negatively impact the whole application.
