How these alternatives were chosen
Tools Google names as alternatives that this directory also publishes, followed by others in Platform. The order is not a ranking, and "—" means we have not checked that field — not that the answer is no.
Google also lists Microsoft (Bing, Outlook, OneDrive, Microsoft 365), DuckDuckGo (privacy-focused search), Nextcloud (self-hosted cloud alternative), Proton Mail (privacy-focused email) as alternatives. Those are not in this directory yet, so there is nothing to compare — and nothing to link to.
