Google is completely enshittified - I can’t even use it without Capchas wasting 90% of my life.
What websites do you recommend (or search engines) to use for research?
You must log in or # to comment.
I’m a professional researcher and we all use Google Scholar. I’ve never seen Captchas on there. Are you on Scholar itself, or standard Google?
I use standard Google. Should I just use scholar? I’m trying to reduce my use of Google’s services though.
Google scholar is fine. There’s little opportunity for them to enshittify since it’s quite easy to construct a journal crawler and there really can’t be that much revenue from people searching for these highly esoteric topics.
And, the people you’d be pissing off would be the ones that are capable of creating a competitor, and there’s already competitors.
Also, their own employees.

You may be surprised by the amount of journals and other scholarly resources you can access through your local library.
Captchas on Google? What?
if you use VPN and someone abuses the IPs, then you’ll likely get captchas.
Interesting, I’ve never heard of that
@TwoGems my business partner just turned me on to www.researchrooster.ai he says it is very helpful for uncovering webs of papers that cite each other and tracking new publication
Thanks!
