Hey, community :)

I run a website that showcases the best open-source companies. Recently, I've added a new feature that filters self-hosted tools and presents them in a searchable format. Although there are other options available, like Awesome-Selfhosted, I found it difficult to find what I needed there, so I decided to display the information in a more digestible format.

You can check out the list here: https://openalternative.co/self-hosted

Let me know if there’s anything else I should add to the list.

Thanks!

Fair point. I'll try to add more context to the listings. Thanks!

Maybe consider collapsible dropdowns or similar for the extra information

This is the solution. That way i can decide if i want to read more about one of them and then sinply open the dropdown.

personally I love it when websites solve this problem with hover hints, theres something satisfying about seeing a paragraph of text on hover that just answers all my questions. not sure how that'd work for people viewing on mobile though

[–] piotrkulpinski@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Added just that! Thank you for the suggestion.

anytime! just remember as @Shimitar@feddit.it pointed out, these will be useless for tablet and mobile users, so you may still need an additional solution!

No please, hover links are just useless to tablet and mobile users, anybody without a mouse actually!
