This is sadly the way of all “awesome” lists. They start of as a curated list of awesome resources, but once they get popular they just get overrun with all & sundry so they’re just lists of not-necessarily-awesome things.
It’s interesting to see that issue though, at least someone has acknowledged the problem in this case, but I’m not sure how productive an issue like that can be? It does have some specifics but it also kinda just says “remove things which are not awesome and add things which are awesome”. Some privacy things are so divisive.

Maybe categorise popular and less popular ones
