easyEDA/LCSC is inferior to LCSC.com

If I go to place a component and I search LCSC for it, I may or may not find what I want ... and the search options are very limited. If I go to lcsc.com and search, I can find components and then copy the LCSC part number into the easyEDA/LCSC popup component window. Is this really necessary? While we are talking about it, user-contributed symbols and footprints vary wildly in quality and consistency. It would be great if users could vote on contributions, the way you do at FaceBook or Reddit, on both the symbol and footprint. Seeing how many votes eash got would help users select any contriobutions worth using. Of course there's a complication where people create a schematic but never convert it into a PCB. Or people layout a PCB without creating a schematic for it. Perhaps giving people an increasing number of votes as they create more schematics & PCBS, more votes if they make them publicly available. The PerlMonks Perl Programming website works that way. While we are at it, the LCSC footprint for a 100nF ceramic through-hole cap is far larger than the actual component. This makes it harder to lay out a crowded board. But you get that from someone else, I suppose there isn't much you can do there. Tom

I'm working on a PCB at the moment .. in a day or two I'll be doing a new schematic and will post something.

Just found an example. I search for IDC conn female 2x3 on easyEDA's LCSC popul, and get sero results. Click on the GO TO LCSC and type in the same thing, I get 22 options, though many of them are wrong. Copying the LCSC part number into the popup and I get the right part and place it into my schematic.

Hi EasyEDA search doesn't same as LCSC search. EasyEDA only support title, MPN, and some keywords. it is less than LCSC search

But it shouldn't be ... The LCSC search should be implemented as an API that EasyEDA can connect to; LCSC does the work, LCSC makes the sale.

Yes, that's what I use, but it doesn't always find things.

Yeah I will agree here. The search function is a bit frustrating in either one in my opinion. It's really frustrating that you can't just type in "100 Ohm Resistor" and get all the available options, especially when searching through the JLCPCBAssembled class. A simple catalog tag system would be really nice.
