I agree about DDG, but I find Kagi worth paying for.



Why do we not like Yandex?


For me personally the issue is that some of my money would go to Yandex, and, by extension, to Russian government. I understand it is only a symbolic amount per user, but still, for me, this is unacceptable (I was a happy Kagi subscriber before I found out about this).


America is nearly as bad as Russia. Dollars paid to American companies are taxed and used to bomb children in Gaza. Are you boycotting all American companies?


From my point of view United States, all things considered, is not nearly as bad as Russia. I do not boycott all American companies but I do boycott some.


Also, funding Russia directly funds their WW3 in Ukraine. (As does Trump, but in a less efficient way.)


A very valuable service for its price.

Also translate.kagi.com is much better than Google’s one.


For translation, a good one is DeepL.


For translation, just pick your chatbot of choice. LLMs fail at many things, but as translators they are very good.


I used it until I found Kagi one.


there's also bing, which does not cost money to use.


I have been using Kagi for about a month now. Haven't had any desire during that time to go back to Google. Solid search engine!


Can you give some example queries where Kagi performs better than Google? I've tried it a few times and found it to be nothing special.
