I'm still paying for kagi because I hope they succeed, but my god the results are fucking dogshit most of the time, especially if your two languages are French and English but you don't live in NA
Also WTF is the rating at the side of the results? If I put it down is that my rating for that site for any search, or my rating for that site for this particular search?
Can't find the answer to that anywhere
I only use it in English but I've found the results to be equal to or better than Google most of the time. I rarely end up checking things in Google after comparing the results for the first few weeks I first started using Kagi, the times I have recently Google has been just as bad (e.g. no results found, or nothing useful) or worse (e.g. a bunch of SEO crap and advertising and whatever other nonsense Google decides to spit up).
My understanding is that the up or down rating pushes results from that domain up or down in your personalized search results for all searches, not just the current search. I flag down things occasionally because they are obvious shit or don't interest me but haven't used the feature much otherwise. I think it could be one of the reasons I find Kagi better than Google though, there's so much crap that just doesn't end up in my results now because I down ranked already. I'm not completely certain that is really how the feature works though, I'd encourage you to contact Kagi support for a definitive answer.
If you can get 5 people for the Apple One Family plan, it's worth it.
Apple One+

I have a subscription to natural gas I really get a lot out of
Usenet (Grandfathered real cheap plan) Brewfather (Excelent recipe manager for beer brewing) Netflix + Spotify (Keeps girls at home happy) Domains (for selfhosting) Backblaze B2 & Cloudflare R3 (Backups)
Yeah that's it

Amazon Prime - planning to cancel
Apple One is expensive but my whole family uses it and the only offered service I don’t really use much is Apple News.
Max. Better than Netflix any day.
Some that I use:
I'm kinda interested in watching streams more (to diversify my video watching habits), so am kinda curious about Twitch's ad-free premium plan thing as well...
Of course, there's also donations and patreon/subscribestar/ko-fi subscriptions, but I don't really consider those "subscription services".
Prime video
Spotify and DropOut for me!
I've been using Trade coffee for the last 2 years or so. The subscription basically amounts to free shipping.
The selection is good, and I get something new every time I order without having to go to multiple websites to see who has what in stock that I'd like.
I don't think their recommendations are that great, but the filter options make it easy to find something I am interested in.
Same. And the coffee is really really good
I subscribe to two podcast networks on patreon. I could listen for free, but I feel it's worth paying for the several hours a month of entertainment I get from them.
Logseq sync, need it for work, and its only £3.74 (5 cows for the Americans). Tried proton VPN plus as well, too expensive for me being £8.38, but its fine because their free tier is generous and I can do video calls with plus aswell. Food is also a good subscription, you can find food shops everywhere with great variety, but the price of the overall spend is higher, but if you buy high volume low cost food you can combat this price increase; some people like to spend extra and add alcohol to their subscription, but i don't see the appeal unless its liquor shots like Apple sour or Baileys, because they taste good.
Proton Unlimited, Mullvad VPN and Kagi are all great. Standard Notes is a great app, too.
Trade coffee. I enjoy trying new coffees. And it's easy to pause the service if I'm traveling a lot and picking up coffees on my own.
VPN
Crunchyroll. Largest catalog I’ve seen and I don’t have to sail the seas for everything. Also enjoy all the dubs.
Deezer. Last year I listened to 770hrs of music. The majourity of that using the suggestion algorithm. I couldn't buy that many albums and I certainly couldn't name the all the albums I've pulled songs from.
At home I'm an album person. But, in the distractions of everyday life keep blasting singles at me and I'll wait for something to catch my ear.
Also, Deez nutz jokes are so easy.
Proton - Mail, VPN, Calendar, Passwords, Notes

Nebula, if the LG app was available where I live/on my TV (yeah, the household wants to use a spytv).
Uber Meats. Nothing but gabagool on demand.
But seriously, a VPN.
Disney+
I'm learning a language as a hobby and Disney+ BY FAR is the most consistent in having dubs and subs available in a variety of languages. I haven't actually watched anything that didn't have it (for the language I'm learning). Whereas most things on other streaming sites don't tend to have it at all unless it's a foreign film and that's the original language.
For me, it's easily worth the money just for that
