It sounds like a gGmbH, but the Imprint ( https://www.ecosia.org/imprint ) still says Ecosia GmbH (-> For-Profit).

Great Project. I am very thankful for this useful tool. Small "bug"/Different behaviour than expected I found: I you move the slider with Arrow-Keys, you are not able to move it be…

The "Fall of Civilizations" Podcast by Paul Cooper is a outstanding long-form History Podcast. Definitely worth a listen.

A great project. I tried searching for the german word "Eichhörnchen" and the third pronounciation was in swiss german. That is a different language. Use with caution :)

In my family its common to lend money. Amounts range from buying a car to downpayment for a house. We are financially a diverse group. From poor to middleclass. That enabled buying…

I recognice myself in this description albeit only partly. Luckily I became aware early on. I force myself to give up things from time to time. Right now youtube is completly block…

There are some very interesting approaches to Cochlea-Implants[0]. In Göttingen (Germany) a research group tries to stimulate the Cochlea via Light. That would allow for a lot bett…

Pursue whats meaningful, not what is expedient. -Jordan Peterson Helps me to keep asking, what and how should i do and approach.

Im currently reading Archipel Gulag from Alexander Solschenitzyn and that joke sounds quite familliar. The reality of the past century in Russia really proved optimists wrong. Deve…

The Discovery of Slowness Its not necesseraly a fictious book, but pleas give it a try. It really helped me understand myself and also other people better.

Useless apparently. Im far better of learning in the university together with some friends. At home I cant get me to do anything. Its frustrating. The possibilities are outstanding…
