  • For me, it’s mostly been about community - I got into bouldering because I met a few people who liked it, got invited to their WhatsApp group, and have been hanging out with them in and outside of the gym for the past year. We all have bad days, weeks, setbacks, and such, but we’re supporting eachother and motivating one another through them.

    In my experience, asking others for help with a bouldering problem, regardless of gym or (European) country, usually leads to at least having a buddy for at least the evening! I’d imagine taking a beginner course has a similar effect.







  • I was in this camp but find that the results I’ve gotten from DDG have been notably worse for the last year or so, to the point that I don’t expect useful results to come out of it any more at this point. Even if I searched “site name” because I couldn’t remember the URL was spelled “site-name.com” I’ve had no results coming from DDG, while Google had it as the first hit.

    Have you experienced something similar? Are there techniques or workarounds I’m not aware of?
