As a very happy Kagi user since launch, I think you should check out this search engine. It's fantastic.

Oh thank god. I'm on the $10 plan and I wasn't using it on mobile because it's so easy to hit 1000 searches on desktop.

That limit is just something that always hangs around at the back of your mind and you had to keep remembering to use Google for currency or unit conversions etc.

Now I can just use Kagi ๐Ÿ‘

Yeah I agree. Even though I never actually went over 1000 queries, still I don't want that limit to exist.

Big discussion thread at Hacker News about this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37603905

So, what's the selling point of kagi over something like ddg or even Google?

[โ€“] 1984 1 points 1 year ago

Check the hacker news thread. :)

Been using it for 3 months it's fantastic. DDG was a bit too slow for my impatient ass.
