Any mention of alternatives is anathema to open source READMEs. This is why the "awesome list of " directories wind up being so useful. Edit: Useful as in "knowing is half the battle". Being able to make an informed choice is worth something, even if it takes extra effort to filter back down.

Maybe I'm just unlucky but the vast majority of all 'awesome lists' that I've seen are just massive dumps of links, of extremely varying quality (I mean the links themselves), which isn't that helpful.

  You're not unlucky, but there are some gems out there. For someone like you who is experienced in the area and can tell garbage from good stuff, it's worth digging around to find the gems. This doesn't help someone who is completely new to the list topic though. Even worse they're probably going to get bad information.

    Maybe an Awesome list of Awesome lists could help

      I'm pretty sure there is one already.
