- Try to keep things on topic
- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience

How are you liking Kagi? Is it worth it?
As someone who spends a lot of time searching and is tired of AI slop, tracking, and targeted ads, it's a breath of fresh air.
It provides a level of quality and control you don't get from the Brave/DDGs of the world, and a reliability that's hard to match with the SearXNGs.
It took a bit of mental back and forth to get comfortable paying for something that has historically been "free", but I'm alright with it.
I'd love to see more FOSS competition (or frankly any competition) out there but hosting a reliable search engine is difficult and expensive.
It's cheaper than any of my streaming subscriptions and I use it 10x as much, so I'm good paying the price.
