    I’ve been playing around with kagi and am actually super impressed with the search results for finding info about a product to purchase. Google results were full of your-search-term-best-reviews.com SEO crap but kagi found info that didn’t pop up even several pages into google search. So it might be how popular/commercial the search term is and google is still better at finding obscure niche things.

      Ya I really like how they remove all the “listicles” top 10 BS list pages that are all just SEO content farms

      I think for general things Kagi is great. I looked up some stuff about WW2 and it brought up great articles. The AI summary thing is really cool, although I think they just use the ChatGPT api.

      Ultimately I stopped using after my trial because if I’m going to pay for a search engine I want it to be at least on parity with the free options
