Just saw another list today - https://www.btw.so/open-source-alternatives

@girish Interesting, there seem to be many 'alternative' lists like this:

• Apps – TROM-Jaro https://www.tromjaro.com/apps/
• Google Alternatives 2020: Best Privacy Friendly Alternatives https://justprivacy.org/google-alternatives/
• Ethical Alternatives & Resources - ethical.net https://ethical.net/resources/
• switching.software | Ethical, easy-to-use and privacy-conscious alternatives to well-known software https://switching.software/
• degoogle | A huge list of alternatives to Google products. Privacy tips, tricks, and links. https://degoogle.jmoore.dev/

but BTW focuses on open-source. None seem to focus on 'easy to install' though…

https://alternativeto.net/ is handy too.

I also find https://selfhosted.libhunt.com/ useful for finding and comparing apps.

Yeah btw.so itself looks/ sounds like it'll be a useful app to add to the wishlist once it's ready. I just asked and they said:

Yes, it will be possible to self-host btw and the code will available soon (we're pre-launch)!

It is now possible to self-host so I've just added it to the wishlist here: https://forum.cloudron.io/post/73350
