Q: Is there a way to ONLY search through academic journals (abstracts ok)?
Essentially being able to run a search in which it will not check all the garbage content blogs out there, and it will only search through academic journals (open access, and in the abstracts of paywalled ones as per you previous response that's fine).
This is a problem with Perplexity if you wanna do any academic research, there is no way to exclude all the junk of the open web like gizmodo, pc magazie, healthline etc etc.
