I asked on Mastodon a few minutes ago if Alternativeto.net was going to add any country fields or badges in order to make it easier for users like us to choose and already got this answer! Feel free to go boost favorite/boost their answer here.

    While that is true, a tag would allow for much more prominent controls (such as the button filters they have for open source and free) and for the use of the “tags:” operator in the search bar. But if an API was made available or if it becomes easy enough to scrape, then it would be good enough for an extensive use.
