If you specifically want a browse-the-apps directory like nostrapps.com, the closest alternative is nostr.net — it's the "Awesome Nostr" list, a curated directory of clients, apps and tools grouped by type, and it's actively maintained.

njump.me is the other one worth bookmarking: besides being an event/profile viewer, it has an apps page that points you to a client for whatever you're trying to open.

For an actual newbie though, the earlier reply is the right order: start at nstart.me to make your keys, then just pick one client (Primal, Damus or Amethyst) and explore from there. The big directories are more useful once you know what kind of app you're looking for.
