I often use pkgstats to check the popularity of Arch packages I use. Sometimes I notice a package is declining in popularity, and I’d like to find similar alternatives that are trending instead. Something like https://pkgstats.archlinux.de/fun

Are there any sites that categorize Linux software and show popularity within each category, so it’s easier to discover alternatives?

    The logic is that the most useful app will be the most popular by virtue of its utility.

    Not always true but I’m sure there’s some correlation.
