Lemmy search isn’t great, or I’m too new, and can’t tell if this has been posted here before.
I read it as the lists are awesome, not necessary everything in the lists.
I will tell you right now that I also think your idea is bad because I wouldn’t follow a list with subjective criteria and selections. I don’t want someone making those subjective decisions for me. Who is to say what awesome is? You don’t know what I’m looking for in a service, you don’t know what I value. If I prioritize privacy and security over form and function, I guarantee it is not going to be the popular or “awesome” option.
Example:
The tide is changing in this regard but 3 years ago, jellyfin was much less mature and Plex was really the most popular option for streaming media. Honestly, very few people talked about jellyfin and if they did, it was usually about it’s deficiencies. So 3 years ago, according to most peoples’ criteria, Plex might be the top option on a list, maybe even the only option with a couple of honorable mentions. But according to me, I wouldn’t even put Plex on a list because I don’t consider it selfhosting being that it relies on 3rd party servers. So who is right? There is not right or wrong, it’s subjective, everyone has to make their own decisions. So you see the problem. That is merely one example of countless because everyone prioritizes things differently.
