Hi, recently discovered https://www.afs.one/
| Free Software Publisher Directory | Awesome Free Software
One of the contributors is Jean-Paul Smets, well known last decade for helping to resist software patents.
The idea is to find products and companies that actually make and maintain Free Software product with some info about them.
What do you think of the approach and the site? Bernhard

When using uMatrix it works sometimes if one enables XHR for api.github.com raw.githubusercontent.com api.unsplash.com
I don't see much benefit in a site that just lists some apparently hand picked software names with a few detached numbers or cases. It lacks software that is not published by a single company.
It doesn't even have LibreOffice :-P
If you don't know a name or publisher already the site doesn't help you anything.
If its goal is to present success cases then it fails to present the success cases.
https://github.com/Fonds-de-Dotation-du-Libre/awesome-free-software "Our ultimate goal is to ensure that Enterprises can take control of their IT through Free Software and reduce their risks thanks to this model of publishing."
A hollow phrase without meanig.
The project seems to be dead, last commit Nov-2019
