A good site that helps me find great alternatives to non-oss that I have grown accustomed to.

Pretty rough around the edges, just did a quick scroll down and noticed several odd choices. Looks like this is mostly built via scraping or by someone who doesn't really know what some of these projects are.

  • Home Assistant is just called 'core' because that's the name of the main repo on github.
  • Mastadon is listed primarily as a facebook alternative.

Agreed, but for me it was still quite helpful to find some alternatives. Do you know of a better portal?

Pretty neat. I just don't see how OBS is an alternative to Adobe Premiere

Good thing it wasn't just me who saw that mistake.

GIMP

Open Source Alternative to Photoshop

oh god no

In a professional setting, GIMP is shit compared to Photoshop. For 95% of normal users, it's more powerful and full featured than you'll ever need.

Not specifically an open source list, but most of the alternatives listed here are open source: https://github.com/pluja/awesome-privacy
