It's a great place to find alternatives (including opensource alternatives) to services and software.

        Looking at that list, no option seems particularly good at the moment.

        https://opensource.builders/ looks nice, but has the code on github and the DB is a single JSON file. Editing requires running the thing locally and then creating a PR.

        https://switching.software/ is a single page that lists all the software. Upside is that the code is codeberg, not github.

        https://prism-break.org/en/ is focused on privacy, very out of date and code is on github.

        Privacy Guides is also all about privacy, so it won't be a generic alternative finder.

        I stopped looking after that.

        Up to the mods which one they want to pick, but honestly, a link to alternatives might cut down on the "I'm looking for a recommendation for an alternative" posts.
