You have:

https://doomworld.com/idgames: is basically the main mod repository, where everyone upload their mods.

https://www.moddb.com/games/doom/mods & https://www.moddb.com/games/doom-ii/mods: moddb doom & doom 2 pages

 

If you want recommendations you can check the cacowards mentionations:

Final Doomer is good in how it provides several different weapon sets to play with.

Get Myhouse and RAMP 2023

You can get RAMP2023 at ramp2023.teamouse.net and you can get myhouse here on doomworld

My personal favorites

Gameplay mods: GunCaster, Project Brutality, NVSE, Treasure Tech, Trailblazer, and Hell Crusher, All of these (except Project Brutality which comes with its own difficult monsters) are Overpowered so you'll want a really powerful monsterpack to balance it out. I recommend Brutal Doom Monsters and LEGION

Favorite maps: HontE Remastered, Hellbnd, Extermination Day Vanilla, UVPRB-Redux

Give meta doom a go as well as embers of armageddon if you're a fan of new doom

[DRON12261]

For me, the best mod in terms of quality and quantity of content, preserving the aesthetics of Doom itself and sufficiently developed balance (given the amount of new and diverse content and mechanics) is Dusted Pandemonia. I highly recommend to immerse yourself in the mod. There are additional addons recently released there that are quite experimental in terms of balance, but provide new content if you get fed up with the main mod.
 

Another of my favorites is Nobody Told Me About id, Complex Doom (pure, without any addons). Recently tried DN3Doom and Punisher, very fun and interesting mods.
 

As for maps and megawads, there is a huge choice, you need to look at try. You can focus on the list of cacowards (but do not expect only masterpieces there, there are often controversial moments), look at what is on doom-wiki, etc. Personally I recommend trying A Doom Odyssey 2022 for Ultimate Doom, and for example Machete for Doom 2.

The Doomer Board Projects could occupy anybody for a few months

especially the later pwads, pure marvels in a sea awash with wads

Mars War is great if youre fine with a less impressive visual style but fun gameplay and cool maps/concepts

Check the Doom Wiki: we have pages on Cacowards, a (slightly outdated) list of notable WADs, you can sort mods by year, and so on.
