I find myself using duckduckgo and kagi more and more. All search engines suck, honestly, but the not-Google choices maybe suck a little less. Google results have gotten horrible, it's so obvious it's just serving up sponsored ad links, not actual information. I mean, that's been the case for a long time but they've really dialed up the suck.

How do you justify Kagis pricing? I search so much everyday that that I would need the "Ultimate" plan which is just too expensive when other alternatives are just free.

My partner and I are on the duo plan with 1500 searches and haven't hit our limit. I've honestly been surprised how little we search?

You may be too, Kagi is very good. I haven't regretted paying for it at all.
