I personally been using it for almost 5 years. I heard about it from a colleague a few years before that but I forgot about it, and then an online ad reminded me to check them out again.

I have first used Ecosia in 2018 but then quit because I wasn't so used to it.

Fast forward to 2023 where I heard the team donated some of profits to assist the morocco earthquake victims. That's when I decided I try again and now I feel completely at home.

My story sounds just like yours haha.

They also have added way more features between 2018 and 2023 so it's easier to commit.

Their goals have gotten more impressive so far so I feel more excitement around the project.

The last video said they are 300% carbon negative through solar panels installed which is awesome.

That's impressive!

Gotta watch that carbon figure. I wish I was 300% carbon negative lol.
