May I suggest adding Grow CRM to list the alternatives for Trello

Nice Collection of alternatives. May I suggest, if you can add Krayin CRM as in alternative list of Salesforce. krayincrm.com/

You should add Photopea as free alternative to Photoshop! (It's only partially open source, but still such a great alternative, that it should make the cut!)

Trying to see if I can find a Cloudflare alternative, possibly FOSS.

Can I really trust Cloudflare, BTW?

Another downside of Open Source and Free, is sometimes they don't provide hosting / support. And self-hosting, especially VPS, does cost something.

[Garret]

Why would you not trust cloudflare?

[Fayaz Ahmed]

You mean the CDN?

[Pacharapol Withayasakpunt]

Proxying, and security shield.

Asset loading performance comes after that. But in the end, it also matters.
