      Everything else people have mentioned in the comments. Proletarian democracy, democratic centralism, participatory democracy, etc.

      Well, the first two are really just a way of saying socialism.

        Democratic centrism is more of a rule or process or principle. It isn’t even a form of government and it’s compatible with many forms of government.

        Proletarian democracy isn’t well defined so I can’t say anything since it means 1000 different things to 1000 different people and often does include representative democracy.

        Participatory democracy similarly is a spectrum and is compatible with representative democracy.

        So to actually talk about this you would need to be more specific about how the “better” form of government would work.
