awesome-humanism VS lists

I started working on an "awesome-humanism" list on GitHub a few weeks ago. New suggestions welcome.

Why do we have curated lists in github?

Example: https://github.com/jnv/lists

- Do we not have that knowledge on the Internet?

- Is it because google search is dying? Is it because github search is better than google search?

- Is being on github provides ability for social interactions, while individual sites do not? Stars, comments, etc?

- Is github more stable? Individual sites stop working randomly, while github lists pointing to other github lists will most likely stay relevant longer?

- Doesn't that work like "Facebook for devs"?

The whole idea that we build our knowledge as github lists looks like a community curated book, or search engine, or bookmark manager looks weird to me. The Internet is so full with automation, scripts, program, that surprises me that so much manual labor is required to run this operation.

import ReadMeCrawler from 'readme-crawler'; var crawler = new ReadMeCrawler({ startUrl: 'https://github.com/jnv/lists', followReadMeLinks: true, outputFolderPath: './output/' }); crawler.run();

I think lots of people use Github/pages for storage and https://github.com/jnv/lists even lists lots of data stored on github

the closest thing i found is .. github.

You even have a "definitive list of lists (of lists)" https://github.com/jnv/lists

You can find lots of foo by searching for "list of foo" on github search. https://github.com/search?q=list+of+anything

.. and you can make your own github pages thing, just like on geocities. https://docs.github.com/en/pages/quickstart

you can still find curated lists especially on github, eg: https://github.com/jnv/lists
