You could use github pages and have awesome-lemmy deploy to it and have html web page without all the extra github stuff , it should be relatively easy to do.
I suggest against creating another project, i see this type of duplication and it really can be confusing (which source do i use?) plus it is a duplication of effort and the fediverse does not really have a lot of contributors unlike companies such as google and facebook.
On the other hand i am the second most frequent contributor to awesome lemmy and might not be entirely objective.
If you want a github organisation could be set up for awesome-lemmy and after a while you could become an owner and it won’t have the bus factor of 1, maybe we can even set up a “lemmy community” github organisation (something like nix-community) and that could make it easier to discover some projects and if for some project and contributor loses interest another one could be assigned (without all the links and it’s name recognition going to waste)
