    Yesterday I found opensourcealternative.to. Today this.

    They seem to be made by different people, but look very similar, and have the same comp ai ad at the top of the page.

    Both are setup to profit from these recommendations, especially the one in the OP. I'm not suggesting these aren't useful sites, but that there are financial motivations at play as well

    By selling advertiser space via their website and newsletter they encourage people to sign up for. You can tell the one in the OP is focused on that in their advertise page https://openalternative.co/advertise and the ad for the owners other platforms which help people monetize list/data table sites like this.

    I also like Zed, to me it sits in that sweet spot between (n)vim and vscode, it's super snappy, has a good ecosystem of extensions/plugins and as a bonus it's not a trojan horse for Microsoft

    I don't like that Zed has such an AI focus, but it is a pretty solid editor otherwise.

    More usefull the list of EU alternatives to get away from the US hegemony or simply the mandatory AlternativeYo page, if I want AI crap, I prefer Futurepedia, Futuretools or Hugging face,

    Excellent website i didn't know it existed. I'm surprised that alternative to AutoCAD like librecad or neocad are posted there 🤔🤔
