Haven’t seen any on here yet… Would love it if someone could do this…
This is my list, maybe it will be useful. :)
Interesting. I’ll keep an eye on it. Thanks!
So someone already mentioned this, but there is this list I maintain on Codeberg: https://codeberg.org/RayJW/awesome-foss
There is also this website which is pretty neat if you’re searching for an alternative for a specific software: https://www.opensourcealternative.to/
Can you be more specific. Alternatives for what? One time list or would you want and expect it to be constantly updated? By whom?
This list and many others like it, may be what you’re looking for.

Watch out for “awesome” lists.
Oh that’s awesome! I have had Awesome Windows lists before but hadn’t stumbled across one on Codeberg yet. Nice.
Hey that’s so cool!!! I never thought I’d see my list posted around :)
Is it just the name you’re wary of or is there something you’d like me to change about it? I’m still working on it when I find new things or stuff changes but I mostly ran out of categories I have knowledge of :(
Some additions to the list you might consider:
Password Managers
- Strongbox (Mac/iOS)
Messengers:
- SimpleX
Browsers:
- Mullvad Browser
Thank you for your recommendations :)
I’ve added SimpleX and Mullvad Browser, I didn’t add Strongbox though. I am already linking to a list containing different projects related to KeePass because I’m not a fan of adding all the clients separately. That’s just going to clutter the list because KeePass has so many different implementations and clients for all the platforms.
I think they mean “watch out” as in “keep an eye out for” rather than “be careful of”.
On a different note I love that you have Pulsar on there :), I’m one of the team working on it so its always nice to see it mentioned in places.
Oh yea, that makes a lot more sense :)
For sure! Super cool meeting you here. I love the work you’re doing. Sadly at the moment I can’t switch full-time yet (mainly on Wayland HiDPI displays) but I’m always checking the progress on good Wayland support, keep up the work! :)
I love pulsar! I’m still using it, Thank you for keeping it up
Is there a FOSS alternative to this site?
Probably the Free Software Directory.
A few days ago the megathread was released
You ahould explain a little more what you want . If you wanf foss android app alternitives i would suggest going to fdroid and searching for what you want.
https://alternativeto.net The was a discussion about adding something similar to the sidebar, but mods never responded, so this question will keep coming up
This is the only thing that pops into my head but it’s not all FOSS so it’s probably not what you are looking for.
I think I heard that this website once recommended Opera as a private browser…
Privacytools may have, but not privacy guides. They are community driven and you can contribute easily. Most (if not all) of their categories’ criteria require open source
Privacyguides is not in line with foss. They have a couple of bad recommendstions in this regard
Which ones do you think are bad recommendations?
This is the opensource sub. Everything that isn’t open source.
