This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I believe it, but I'm still debating whether something like Kagi is worth paying for. On principle, I strongly feel like it is, but in practice I'm still evaluating. So far, I've played with it a few times and I haven't observed any notable improvements, but I'm trying to keep an open mind. First impression is that it's definitely a little quicker and cleaner to get at the information I'm looking for. And taking a step back, I have to say it's impressive that they can replicate a behemoth like Google's accuracy already. On the other hand, I've felt like Google has gotten so crappy at search recently that maybe I'm simply not going to be satisfied with anyone simply "meeting" them and maybe what I want simply isn't possible, in which case I'm just paying for disappointment.
i have been using kagi for 3 years now and as a developer i use search a lot. for me difference is so significant that i can’t use google anymore. google results are mostly filled with clickbait articles or straight up llm generated trash.
apart from relevance kagi index also seems good it prioritising good blogs and forum posts.
then the bigger problem is ads, even if i search in private mode, i will be getting ad and spam mails about that topic for weeks.
