This is a far more functional list here. https://pluja.github.io/awesome-privacy/

Kajika ,

They list gitea but not forgejo. That's not really advocating for FOSS. "all" (the ones I looked at) are startup products coined as open-source.

I really don't like this website and this list, to me this is replacing bad solutions by other bad solutions (I am sorry for the people that like firebase and co).

I am sorry for the negativity but I really don't enjoy this link and all it represents and all the people enjoying such content. I guess I/we should explicitly separate FOSS from open-source.

I may be out of touch and should be educated on why/how this is good.

Creepy tracking, less functionality than the old alternativeto.net (also less content, but of course content takes time so that's understandable), plus desperate-looking "enroll to our newsletter" and "advertise" pleads. Looks like a cheap attempt at making a couple bucks to me.

No search function (at least on mobile), so you have to go through the whole page and read everything to find something. There is no “alternative to” text. How should I know if some software can replace something? Page links at the bottom of the website?

I nearly started typing a name of software in the newsletter box to search. Didn’t even notice it’s a sign up thing

Wait tracking? Does it really have that?

I meant web tracking: my ublock origin stopped cloudflareinsights.com, posthog.com and googletagmanager.com (which is most probably used to add more stuff - IDK for sure since I didn't try unblocking to see what it would do).

Hmm almost every website has some sort of tracking. Does it have ads though? I didn't see any

Yeah... and most send info to the same mega companies, which is why it's creepy :)

BTW: I'm 100% ok with a website collecting stats on which of their pages are more popular and even with profiling my session to see which pages correlate to which - I'm not ok with websites remembering me across sessions and definitely not ok with Google (and others) tracking my whole web history and using/selling it to show me shitty ads.

alternativeto.net has some amazing content.

This list of fdroid apps is the best overview that I've found so far:

Great list, thanks!

Are you the author? Because I might have some additions to suggest.
(one is Equate which combines a calculator with unit/currency conversion - I have not gone through the whole list)

I'm not the author of the the list, I just recommend it when appropriate.

(c: I use and prefer Equate as my converter app too.

That's a very nice website and everything but listen I don't have time to scroll all of that amazing new apps. You're making me way too distracted with this one. Oh btw look there's a Google Analytics alternative. Let me write down its name real quick

fin OP ,

There are several links at the bottom of the page which you might find helpful.

categories

alternatives

topics

Lol I was joking. I meant that there are so many new apps and I want to learn more about them which needs time and I'm gonna get fired for not setting up the new network equipment in time
