I don't think looking at the star counts makes you automatically a bad developer, but it certainly shouldn't be the only thing you look at. If you're unfamiliar with libraries solving a specific problem, I don't see anything wrong with looking at them from the most to the least popular. Popularity can also be a sign of community and therefore more likely continued "support"
I'm literally writing that it's not what I am doing, so please don't talk to me about laziness when you can't even read a three-sentence long comment.
