I've been really happy with Kagi since switching.

Same! I swore I wouldn’t pay for a search engine, but I feel like it’s absolutely worth it, considering the current state of things.

Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't Kagi still uses google/bing results?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

I might be wrong, but they meta-search across multiple providers, including their own. The real benefit is that YOU can choose which search subjects to prioritize when trying to find something specific.

For normal search stuff, this feels like "old Google" (no ai spam). For detailed searching, its better than any other engine I've used.

It's definitely better...but. Thanks to Google SEO the internet it's bringing you results from is still filled with shit

Same. It's amazing. I really like the feature where you can prioritise or deprioritise search results from certain websites.
