I’ll start with one of the most useful singular list of lists on the internet.
https://github.com/topics/awesome
“An awesome list is a list of awesome things curated by the community. There are awesome lists about everything from CLI applications to fantasy books. The main repository serves as a curated list of awesome lists.”
Just about anything you can think of is within this list. Enjoy!
PS: Thank you mods for your work moderating submissions. The quality and relevance of posts here is refreshing. This has to be my favorite community on Lemmy.
Might not be for everyone, but I’m proud to present: https://whatthefuckshouldimakefordinner.com/index.php

I’ve made a few thousand dollars on some of the paid survey apps. That’s useful to me! It’s tedious as can be but Qmee, Attapoll, Survey Spin, and Leger opinion have paid me about 3K in the last year and a half. I have bought myself many pairs of shoes and two new coats and a ton of other stuff.

I use this Android benchmark website whenever a sibling asks me, “what phone should I get?”
It’s not a precise comparison. (In fact, it rates different carrier software running the same LG G710 phone hardware as anything from 7,000 to 8,000.) And it reminds you of its imprecision several times.
But some phones made today benchmark like they’re seven years old. And the site helps you avoid those egregious cases.
AlternativeTo.net
The name is pretty self-explanatory, but even if you don’t know the exact program you’re looking for, the search tool can find you programs based on a description like, “photo editor” or “markdown editor.”
It’s one of the first places I go when looking for software. Especially open source software.

The list is at this link:

Honestly, alternativeto.net on its own is probably worthy of being an answer to this question. That is an extremely useful website.
Cool, I’ll give the rest a look. I also use osalt.com to find similar programs or apps.
what does the L stand for?
Gonna guess Libre ? I think it’s French for freedom or something. CBF looking it up. I’m currently sleeping.
Yes, libre in French or Spanish means ‘free, not imprisoned’.
Here’s the short explanation from gnu.org
