I like what Kagi are doing, even though I don't pay for their search engine. I've been enjoying browsing the Kagi Small Web portal recently.

    What ? This isn't new. They have had this for years.

    That's not new. They've had it for a long time now.

    If Kagi were Free (as im Free Beer), Libre (as in Free Speech/Freedom) and Open Source, it were perfect.

    But not only it's not open source, but also it's paid. I ain't using nothing that isn't FLOSS.

    It's five bucks a month and has a lot of functionality.

    For only 300 searches, that's 10 searches a day. I do probably 50 to 100 searches per day.

    So, it's really $10 a month.

    I might pay $5 a month for unlimited but I'm not sure about that. Because, you know they'll raise the price if they get successful enough. And, then it's just a constant march to more enshittification.

    They offer a genuinely good product and I think it's important to support companies that sell a good product rather than their customers' info.

    I paid $5 for a couple of years but eventually stopped because I kept running out of searches after a few weeks. $10 a month for a search engine is excessive but 300 searches a month is too limiting.

    This is great. This was one of things that I disliked about Lemmy, as being federated makes it harder to use external search engines.

    I think that might be the final thing to make me switch from DDG to Kagi.

    That's fucking awesome but the ranking is highly questionable.

    I searched myself and a 4 upvote comment was the top thing.
