Domains Kagi users create personalization for (kagi.com)

It's quite interesting watching what domains Kagi users are creating personalizations for in the search engine.

You can block, raise, lower or pin selected websites. I noticed that reddit is one of the top raisers because people simply don't find unbiased results otherwise.

I've been enjoying kagi but it's tough trying to operate with a limited number of searches. For example: when I'm struggling to put together some basic python I'm used to iterating through many different queries to find the results I need. At 1.5 cents a search (or whatever) I have to be more careful. I can't swing $25/mo for my search engine at the moment.

I'm in the same boat

I feel it should't be per search but rather limit billing to 1 per 5 minutes or something that is somehow identifying context so if I am searching for the same thing and trying out different queries to see what gives me the best result that shouldn't count as 5 queries if I'm just adding or removing words from/to an earlier query

This is a good idea. If it grouped similar searches together and only counted them as "one" it would feel a lot more usable.

Have you used chatgpt for this? It's incredible at putting together code and explaining code, much better than any search engine.

Yep, that's what I ended up doing. It worked amazingly well for my simple task while i struggled with "types" or something.
