Pretty much https://kagi.com/ but outrageous
Kagi is like google was 10 years ago though, useable and useful, while Google has morphed an SEO trashcan. I wouldn't pay them any amount for current quality
Isn’t their pricing per month not per query?
$5 for 300 queries. $10 unlimited.
They only changed that about a week ago, it used to be $10/1000 queries. Not that I'm complaining - I'm on that tier!
Yeah. i have seen I think in their FAQ that plan and confused me a bit. Moving from DDG to Kagi
The cheapest plan also has query limits.
How is it outrageous to pay for a product? There are obvious reasons and benefits. Go use a free one then. No need to bash a good product because you don’t want it.
I never said Kagi is, I said Google would be if they applied the pricing model.
I'm down for the concept, but the pricing on Kagi is also pretty steep. $5/month for 300 searches? $10 unlimited. I have no doubt there are serious costs involved in providing search, but for a layman like me it feels way more than it should be. Does google even make $120/user/year on search, or even $60?
Anywho, I'd give it a go if it were cheaper, else, I'd rather be lightly advertised to on DuckDuckGo
Eventually I will use the trial of it. I don't feel like I actually do that many searches, and most are me looking up Pokemons while I play the games. So 300 searches per month doesn't actually sound too bad, I can do my least important searches like my game ones on DDG.
