Finding an open source project (lemmy.world)

Is there a community/site that organises and lists open source projects?

I want to get into working on open source projects but I have found it difficult to find the projects themselves.

I'd preferably like to be able to filter by project type, tech stack, state of development, active users, and active developers.

Is this an open source project in itself?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I’ve run across a couple sites.

https://www.opensourcealternative.to/

https://github.com/sereneblue/awesome-oss

https://opensourcesoftwaredirectory.com/

https://opensource.com/resources

https://www.techradar.com/best/best-open-source-software

Tangentially related: https://github.com/awesome-selfhosted/awesome-selfhosted

Pretty much the opposite of what you asked for but good to know: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_formerly_open-source_or_free_software

@chirospasm@lemmy.ml beat me to the punch with alternative.to

That's a great list, thank you for taking the time. I'll look into them all
