It feels like every other post on privacy and technology is someone pushing the (paid) search engine Kagi nowadays...
I'm not affiliated with Kagi or anything, it's just refreshing to have a fresh approach to search engines that doesn't involve using advertising to pay for it. I haven't actually paid for a plan yet, but I do have a trial account, and it seems like a pretty good product.
Probably, since every other post is about search engines, and many of us have been cursing the ever-worsening search results from google, with no real alternative (that actually provides better results than google).
Now that there is finally an ad-free product that performs like Google did 5-10 years ago, of course, I want others to have the same experience and not get frustrated when they can't find the information they're seeking.
