  Checked if it were already listed, could not find it, hence here is my first contribution.

  This has existed for 10 years: https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome

    I suggest perhaps a meta-repo, listing all the repos that list awesome repos. https://xkcd.com/927/ https://xkcd.com/927/

  It's interesting to know the very first "awesome" repo. Does anyone have an idea?

    Probably the awesome-php one. A lot of them got started mid-2014, but awesome-php predates that.

  the main problem with awesome repos is that they are append only lists. nobody wants to de-awesome a project. they always start awesome and then degrade because while each individual addition may be awesome (questionable already), the cumulative unstructured addition will have every likelihood of being not awesome by law of entropy

    as an example: https://github.com/dhamaniasad/awesome-postgres https://github.com/dhamaniasad/awesome-postgres lists BDR which is deprecated according to https://github.com/2ndQuadrant/bdr https://github.com/2ndQuadrant/bdr, and links to https://2ndQuadrant.com/BDR/ https://2ndQuadrant.com/BDR/ for version 2, but this redirects to https://www.enterprisedb.com/ https://www.enterprisedb.com/ which does not seem to mention BDR at all. edit: by pure intuition i reached https://www.enterprisedb.com/docs/pgd/latest/ https://www.enterprisedb.com/docs/pgd/latest/ that seems to be the modern incarnation of BDR. It doesn't seem to mention licensing at all, so it's unclear if this thing is still open in any way that matters.
