I've been using kagi maybe a year now, and it is great. I know it is great because every so often I jump on someone else's computer for a task and have to search so.ething and I'm completely overwhelemed by what comes up.
I'll take the lesser evil over the greater. The main concern I'm aware of is that Yandex kills people. Google kills more people than Yandex, by whichever metric you use, so I'll take the lesser evil.is the lesser evil here.
The other concern I saw is that they might deliver pro-Russia propaganda. If that happens, I'll trust Kagi to firewall them appropriately. Google also intentionally delivers geopolitical propaganda.
Kagi is nice but it just seems so expensive for what it is. I get that search that actually shows me what I want is expensive but I would want to use this as a family plan and I think we would go through the lower paid tiers pretty quickly.
The AI summaries are what made me switch. I don't love the idea of using Google products for all the obvious reasons, but they had good UX so that's what I kept using. Enter the AI summaries which made Google search unusable for me, and I was more than happy to pay Kagi
Tangential but I just went to Kagi.com to check their pricing and I was astonished to see that:
- The "Monthly" option is selected by default.
- If you click "Yearly", it tells you the actual full yearly price without dividing it by 12.
That's so rare and refreshing that I'm tempted to sign up just out of respect.
and if you stop using it for a little while they just paused your account automatically.
Whoa. That’s amazing!

Unfortunately Kagi partners with Yandex https://kagifeedback.org/d/5445-reconsider-yandex-integratio...
Yandex, the only search engine that doesn't censor searches for torrents.

WTF? Thanks for the notice.
