Prism Break is also worth taking a look: https://prism-break.org/en/

I like that it has OS-specific recommendations.

One of the most frustrating things about this website is that it doesn't provide a reason for their "avoids." Why should I use KeePass over 1Password? Why should I use Mumble over FaceTime?

It wouldn't be that hard to provide a sentence-long justification for their avoids in addition to their recommendations.

The only reason is because they are closed source.

Prism Break is actively maintained and a lot of thought is being put into curation. Privacy Tools recommends Claws Mail, but Prism Break removed it after investigating the code: https://gitlab.com/prism-break/prism-break/issues/2043

Claws was one of the few email clients not affected by efail because of its conservative design.
