I have been browsing the following:
- openalternative.co/?sort=pageviews.desc
- alternativeto.net/feature/open-source/
- www.opensourcealternative.to
- euroalternative.co
- european-alternatives.eu
Which one do you think open source minded people should primairly recommend?
#selfhosted
threaded - newest
Why not just all of them?
There is privacytools.io aswell
privacytools is controversial for turning into a cash grab and is about privacy alternatives, many apps have good privacy but aren't open and are missing some features so more general software alternatives sites are way better i personally like alternativeto
Privacy guides is the forked project by the original contributors.
Yep I forgot to add that to my comment
i like alternativeto.net because it’s crowdsourced; not sure about the others
They are good guys, they even have a mastodon account: mas.to/@alternativeto
alternativeto.net is also my go-to resource because they have a good filtering system and are not solely focused on open source.
To me it is hard to find the best apps in their directory as they don’t have a good ranking system. The other sites that rank by GitHub stars do a pretty good job of surfacing what are the truly most popular and successful apps.
alternativeto
My go-to
github.com/An-anonymous-coder/…/main?tab=readme-o…
