Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/miantiao-me/awesome-homelab/issues/24

Who on earth needs all those business intelligence tools, ERP and CRM and webshops and business-scale analytics tools and a customer live chat in their homelab? Then some projects have been obsolete and long been superseeded (Forgejo, ...). Gitea is listed twice here? There's a tower defense game listed under "Automation". The most common content management system isn't even mentioned under CMS. But then you have half the CMSes under "Writing" anyway. A lot of very common tools are mentioned here but weirdly some other very common choices are missing or even the top contenders, reverse proxies, password managers, automation tools...

If this is an AI generated list of random projects, please disclose that fact.

If you're calling it an awesome list, maybe read the Awesome manifesto and list guidelines and ensure your list complies.

Absolutely feels redundant with Awesome Self-Hosted already existing.

This list isn't included on the main Awesome repo, but doesn't have to in order to include the badge. It also doesn't follow several of the Awesome list requirements. ~~There hasn't been any human interaction I've seen in months.~~ It's unfortunate that the SEO seems to be doing so well considering it is almost certainly slop.

Edit: If it's not, it certainly needs some attention.
