Formerly pretty good free resource for academic citations now turned into a giant pile of steamy hot garbage by the incredible asswipes at Chegg, a corporate name that mostly calls forth the image of a debilitating sexually transmitted infection.
Recommend using instead: https://www.scribbr.com/citation/generator. At least until they also start demanding your firstborn daughter for each citation.
Nah man more like: “let’s find a way around it shall we”
Always free, not shitty. Been great for and simple for 5 years now.
Zotero is fucking amazing.
It is! I taught research at the grad and doctoral level and Zotero was the best by a long shot. SciWheel is a close second.
I hope the Devil comes for EndNote soon, it is awful and has been awful for a long time.
Try https://www.mybib.com/ instead. No ads
Pro tip: use zotero. Its an open-source bibliography program, you can export the entire bibliography at once in whatever format you want.
I wouldn’t mind paying but their prices are always quite high. I’m not convinced these services are that expensive to run
Does anyone subscribe to shit like this? Honestly…
And for this reason, I’m out.
There’s like 50 of these. If one enshittifies, jump to another.
Though if I was in academia, I wouldn’t mind paying a couple bucks for a high quality one
I feel like if you were writing enough to be willing to pay that much it it would be more worth it to just learn to use LaTeX and have it all handled automatically
Latex doesn’t auto generate citations though, wdym
Well it will automatically generate the citation, it just won’t automatically get the information for it, which has never been an issue for me but thinking about it I can see how it would be sometimes
I think Zotero can generate a file which you can then import into LaTeX with all of the citation details. That’s worked very nicely for me in the past.
Zotero time
Not a meme
