It already exists: https://opensource.builders

Is that the only one?

There's similar stuff, like switching.software, but they are more like a website that recommends stuff, this is the most similar thing to AlternativeTo. Also note that OpenSource Builders still does not support user input through the website, you need to create an issue for something to be added, but as far as I know they were working on that.

I think without supporting user input it can never hope to cover the crowdsourced breadth and detail of alternativeto. It's no more than a frontend for another awesome-list , as it currently stands.

Well, they are working on it, and I assume they're humans and have a life besides this project, of course it doesn't stand a chance, maybe you could help them and see if that makes them progress faster on the project.
