Most of the projects listed in the toolbox have a github page, and most github pages contain a "project description" line at the top. What do you think of having an alternative/secondary version of the clojure-toolbox which is more verbose (possibly linked to near the top), containing each project's description text after the name of the project?
The main benefits of this would be easier ctrl-f browser searchability, and more immediately available info for the reader. Though the main drawback is that it would be much more cluttered.
Alternate idea: use the project description text as tooltip text shown when hovering over the project name? (When I'm browsing the toolbox, I often stop at a project and wonder what it's all about. Would be nice if a tooltip just popped up to tell me what it's all about.)

+1 to @miclill idea. Having GitHub stars would be of great help! Other "popularity" stats like suggested in #265 are okay too, but possibly harder to implement as Clojars isn't the only place where Clojure libraries live. Last update isn't that important, I think, as many Clojure libraries are stable and don't require active development.
As someone who uses Clojure mostly for hobby projects, I often have a "decision fatigue" when I need to pick up a single dep from the variety of options.
I do understand that stars can be perceived by someone as some kind of rating, like the dep with more stars is "better" than the other one with fewer. But I think stars can also be interpreted as "go grab this one if you don't have an opinion yet".
