Add it to the list?

https://www.privacytools.io/

I think if alternativeto.net just adds a setting to only view FLOSS alternatives maybe this genre of websites would be threatened



That setting exists, you can show only open source, or only proprietary, or only Linux, etc.


For a more updated version of privacytoolsio:

https://www.privacyguides.org/

(Some history: the privacytoolsio website was created by the subreddit r/privacytoolsio. A while ago the founder was kicked out after being inactive for over a year, but that founder happened to own the website domain and refused to give it to the remaining moderators. The founder also started adding affiliate links into the privacytoolsio website. So the remaining mods decided to rebrand completely, creating a new sub r/privacyguides and a new website as well.

Interesting, thanks for the context! Unfortunately I don't seem to be able to edit my original comment, but I'll keep that in mind for next time
