How These Scores Are Calculated
Every score comes from a published, auditable formula: 100 ?? (0.35??source_quality + 0.25??freshness + 0.25??completeness + 0.15??verification_depth). Each input derives from data recorded in our directory ??? no guessed numbers. See the [full scoring methodology](/en/trust) for sources and weights.
Honest Limitations
Pricing and licensing differ per server and show as Unknown until verified from each project's official repository. Rankings shift as data updates ??? scores above reflect the directory state at last audit. A high confidence score does not mean suitability: match the category to your actual need first.
Decision Summary
To start fast: pick your category above, review the server page for full evidence, then compare your top two via comparison pages. Unsure? Ask [our decision engine](/en/ask) ??? it answers only from recorded evidence and explicitly reports insufficient_evidence when proof is lacking.
