       Not a lot of interest in expanding the alternatives list for this extension: Just got a single PR so far: https://github.com/nileshtrivedi/betterPerhaps I should just hand it over to folks at @privacytools  or @switchingsoftware ?

       Hi @nilesh ,I wasn't aware of this until now 😅 Cool idea! What comes to my mind spontaneously:* matching URLs to software could be an own list/repo? Could be interesting to others as well - e.g. if one would create an extension for this:https://justdeleteme.xyz* with a few adaptions to our codebase, one should be able to generate a list based on our site* maybe, one could also generate lists based on open-source proposals from alternativeto.net ?

       @switchingsoftware I have added support for switching to any source of recommendations, not just the one that ships as default. We are also planning to support multiple lists simultaneously. The default list does need curation and governance.https://github.com/nileshtrivedi/better/issues/8

       @switchingsoftware We are planning to work on this on this weekend as part of the FOSSUnited hackathon. Do you have some time to brainstorm on this on how best to improve this? The idea of changing this from simply recommending alternatives, to sharing tipis (like how to delete account) is interesting.

       @switchingsoftware No worries. Completely understand the time situation as I'm going through exactly the same.After the hackathon, users can now subscribe to multiple sources of alternatives. We also added the ability for users to suggest alternatives via extension pop-up that raise a pull request on GitHub. Demo videos added in the README: https://github.com/nileshtrivedi/better/blob/master/README.md
