I switched to Kagi for everyday usage, yandex for piracy and Google Maps for finding places on the map. There really is no one option.
Do you find kagi to be worth the price?
Absolutely! I'm not the person you asked, but that's my answer. I've been using it for about 5 months now, and my sanity is greatly preserved. Google, Bing, and all the others were driving me crazy with how worthless the results were, and how every search somehow pushed a product or news site.
Echoing this, i gladly pay for the professional tier, Kagi’s fastGTP and summarizer are quite nice, and the custom search ranking system is a godsend.
Yeah, it's pretty great when I search a question and it just puts the answer at the top of the page, as determined by the consensus on whatever pages it has crawled. I haven't fully trusted that yet and still read the pages, but it hasn't been wrong yet. I'll probably start trusting it.
It won't be worth it for everyone tho, I am a heavy search user, I search many times a day for work and just cause I like reading about everything. Someone who searches once or twice a day might not find value.
Yes. For me Kagi is like Jackett (a selfhosted website to search torrents). I can tell it which websites I like to see results from. Or I can block websites entirely.
If Google also adds ability to block specific websites I will go back to it. Many people say Google's results are bad, for me it's bad because I keep seeing websites I hate in their search results.
