And you can easily block or boost sites in the search results: I've got all pinterest domains blocked, along with a bunch of "news" outlets that don't actually produce anything good in the world.
Similarly I have stuff like reddit, hackernews etc boosted in the results if they match.
I did the free trial for a while and only used Kagi for a while, still going strong with the $5 300 searches per month tier. I don't really need to search that much because the results are usually correct the first time :)
Yep. I'm 100% sold on it. Thank you very much kind human. It's crazy how used to Google I had become. Not thinking about features which would be helpful like simply raising/lowering a sites visibility. It even has done well for me when it comes to local searches! Truly a game changer.
