Probably not what you're looking for but I find the https://alternativeto.net/ news pretty good for software
Is there some kind of alternativeto astroturfing going on today? I see they just rolled out a website redesign, but I literally only know them as a spammy SEO-bait site I wind up clicking accidentally when I look for software recs. Everything on the site is generic and AI-generated as hell. Tons of ads, AI generated images, and dark patterns.
Mods, take note.
๐คท just my opinion as requested in the post. You've given yours. No idea what you mean about astroturfing
