Honestly, the folks at Merriam Webster are pretty amazing and I don’t mind supporting them with a simple click.
Crowdsourced solutions are fine, but subject to armchair research and inaccuracy. If it really matters, I’d rather trust people who have studied and devoted their lives to being linguists.
I have to admit that I’ve given them a little wary side eye due, paradoxically, to brand recognition - coupled with the assumption that enshitification would have occurred by now with an established one like that
