There’s a ton of link-aggregator GitHub README.md lists out there containing insane amounts of basically useless information that is aggregated for the sake of aggregation. It’s akin to digital hoarding (don’t look at my read later app though 😒).
So instead, here’s a collection of basic software and tools for the everyday dev or power user. I’ll try to list alternatives in two categories:
- SaaS (might cost money, hosted on other’s servers)
- Self-Hosted (aka essentially free)
In some cases there might be more than two listed, just because the alternative offering is very different.
