Tall order. Github stars are maybe closest these days?
- Maybe should be an aggregator-aggregator, using github stars and all the various metrics/lists you can find, making formal affiliations with those sites so there's no ill-will?
- Maybe a decentralized governance (or clear neutrality in listing mechanism) to encourage people to participate knowing you're not gonna turn bad?
- Maybe section off a bit more wishlisting projects people WANT to exist (and subscribe to updates on as others fulfill)?
- Maybe a place to complain and critique existing software (closed or open source) and dream up alternatives (like a reverse engineering or UX critique forum?)
- Maybe some affiliates program to get projects to backlink, and/or incentives program to manage a donation pool across projects to pay for advertising and bring more people into the space?
- Maybe plan around inter-project architecture (common libraries in demand) and have people be able to push for the most needed ones?
- Maybe plan around AIs becoming an increasingly large segment of contributors, certainly on more junior/intermediate things, and make workflows to direct their efforts in a simple-to-contribute way (e.g. hook up your compute to an open-source AI coder hosted in the cloud with a TODO list to churn on already vetted by other people/AIs)
All ideas. Good luck! Would love this to exist at popular scales.
