I tried 3 websites that I know. Two are hosted in green hostings and mine (normal hosting AKA GitHub Pages). All other calculators got similar results, but Ecoindex.fr was extremely different. Furthermore, it didn't make anything clearer to me and its suggestions were not exactly very useful.
Ecograder, on the other hand, suggested to me very specific actions to take, for example, a certain CSS (Bootstrap, for example) was not optimized, or a specific JS was not minimized.
I would say between the common calculators and Ecoindex.fr, there are widely unrelated? standards since their conclusions are considerably different. For example, Ecoindex.fr highlights the number of elements that websites have.
This is something that none of the other calculators mentioned and is difficult to fix in most cases. You can run Lighthouse to analyze your website's performance, and I've never had a recommendation that told me, "Too many Divs! Remove some of them!" It's a very strange standard to consider. Also, it was the only calculator that did not mention the lack of Green Hosting on my website. This was very odd. I personally cannot recommend Ecoindex.fr for now.
My conclusions, for now, would be:
All other calculators have considerable flaws and Ecoindex.fr is amazing.
All other calculators are on the right track and Ecoindex.fr must check its standards since something seems to be fishy.
Yes, as I said it's strange. I did the same test with my own website, and the results was differents, but not at this point. And the badest there was websiteestimation. Anyway. After, I'm not completely with your remarks against ecoindex about the complexity of the DOM, because it's an indicator. That's said, I don't know exactly how it's used in the ponderation, so...
