Self-hosted alternatives to FeatureOS

FeatureOS, formerly Hellonext, is a feedback management platform with feedback boards, roadmaps and release notes. Two listed apps do its main job and run in your own Cloudflare account.

Each answer comes from the app’s README and source code, compared with the features FeatureOS describes on its own site.
