Context. Open clusters are groups of coeval stars sharing properties such asdistance and metallicity, and they are key to understanding stellar evolution.Aims. Our main goal is to study the evolution of open clusters with a specialfocus on the universality of the luminosity function. Methods. We applied anupgraded version of the convergent point technique on about 50 open clusters.The selection of cluster members was based purely on the exquisite astrometryof the Gaia DR3 and Hipparcos catalogues in the five-dimensional or fullsix-dimensional space. Results. We present updated lists of bona fide membersof ~50 open clusters within 500 pc and younger than 1 Gyr, exploiting the fulldepth of the third Gaia data release complemented by Hipparcos at the brightend, excluding regions in the Galactic plane. Our catalogues also arecomplemented by optical and infrared photometry from the major large-scalepublic surveys. All the data will be made available on a dedicated webpage withinteractive plots and a direct link to Aladin and Vizier hosted at the Centrede Donn\'ees de Strasbourg. We derived luminosity functions for all boundclusters and compared them in three age groups of ~50 Myr, ~150 Myr, and ~600Myr, discussing similarities and differences to constrain their dynamicalevolution. Conclusions. Luminosity functions of clusters at 50 Myr are morelikely similar to each other and show a greater degree of similarity than olderclusters. We explain this observation with the universal luminosity functionwithin the volume of our sample (500 pc). Luminosity functions of clusters withages similar to the Pleiades or Hyades are more diverse, perhaps due tointernal dynamical evolution, but more work is needed to provide additionalevidence.
