Part of that is that before it was more of personal curation list. Now it is basically collection of curated list of individuals contributing to an awesome list. To be honest it serve the role of having a place where you explore new things. The most famous one for me is awesome selfhosed, I visit it every couple of month to see the new development in this area because it is interesting to me.

I'm always amazed at how many stars these glorified `list.txt` repos get

Amazing, besides most of these links in the provided list are not anywhere near awesome as for example the Awesome Spatial or Awesome JS are. And still - are we not beyond Mozilla directory for 20 years now? I’m expecting someone implements and Amazing RAG for these lists… otherwise they are of little help to the novi ce as many sentries are dubiously amazing.

I guess it signifies something closer to a bookmark than approval as a repo with quality code

This is how I use stars - as bookmarks. Am I doing it wrong?

Nope. Github stars are intended to be used the way you've described:
https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/exploring-projects-on...
It's similar to a user clicking the "favorite" link on a particular HN comment. It's a way for HN users to "bookmark" old comments to be saved in their own "favorites" list.
At what point did the Awesome-lists purpose change from "Here's stuff I personally verified to be pretty awesome" to "Here's a list of stuff I came across when searching but I have no idea about the quality of stuff"?
Not that having some sort of collection/index is bad or anything, it's just way less useful than a curated list of things you actually find "awesome" and related to some topic.
For the ones who weren't around at the "creation" of awesome-lists, this I think is the origin: https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome/blob/main/awesome.md
> If you want your list to be included on awesome, try to only include actual awesome stuff in your list. After all, it's a curation, not a collection.
Today, the name remains, but not for curation.
