Google Scholar is still quite good for the moment

Here is an example for searching for "cats" with academic turned on. It's not just .edus but it's definitely part of the weighting. Nature is usually the first hit obviously.

You can also make custom searches with parameters and link easy access third party buttons. I did one for Google shopping for instance.

I didn't know kagi is supported in Brave mobile. Been trying to set it up on Mull (Firefox) but gotta wait for v122 so I can install via a file

Yup, yup. Should be under recently visited in the selection settings iirc if you visit the page first. Trying to pen in my Google use to very specific things, but Brave will probably be last to go. Excited for mobile FF!

Archive.org scholar is great too! This academic search is a bit different because it does webpages and not just publications.
