Thanks you for recommending, this looks interesting!

[–] Wawe@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Thanks! I will check them out!

[–] Wawe@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Thank you, I forgot about that. Yeah that could be good starting point!

Doing moderation is something that I would not want to do at the start. At least in the start all items would be created by me. This would be a side project for me and all user submissions would be verified (if ever allowed). This would be more like personal list rather than huge community project. Maybe if this evolved overtime then it could be something else.

Yeah, wiki might be simplest solution for this, but I was wondering if there existed something more visually friendly. IMO wiki (similar to https://consumerrights.wiki/Main_Page) is less "pretty" to AlternativeTo. But using wiki could probably be starting point for this.

Thanks for recommendation. I am technical, but more on backend side rather than front end. I would love to use something that is opensource. This would probably work, but seems like I would need the create a lot of things "from scratch". This would be a side project so I am looking something that would be simple as possible.

[–] Wawe@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah, end goal would probably create something like this.

[–] Wawe@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah, pretty much this.

Never hear about this and sad that it got cancelled.

I mean they already list alternatives to their site: https://alternativeto.net/software/alternativeto/ :D

[–] Wawe@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Maybe in the future, but my goal for this site is to just list brands and not individual products.

[–] Wawe@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Thanks for sharing! This has same idea that I am have plans! IMO this shows that wiki is bit less user friendly compared to what AlternativeTo has.

 

I am looking to create similar tool to AlternativeTo. This would list different brands and why you should or should not buy them. Is there some software that would be great starting point for creating this kind of service?

I would guess wiki apps would work for this, but like wikijs, but interested to hear is the something else that could be used for this.

 

I want to selfhost cloud drive and looking for what would be the best option. I originally used Nextcloud, but it has a lot of features not related to file hosting so I would be interested in something simpler. I found out about Cozy Cloud (https://cozy.io/) but there is really little info about that. Has anyone used that and how does it compare to Nextcloud?
