The date is currently 23/11/2023 as I write this and I have been using the Kagi search engine since September 30th 2023, meaning that I have been using the Kagi search engine for almost 2 months now and this is going to be my review of this search engine.
On my second paid month. Still trying to decide if its worth it. Biggest plus is that its not jammed with sponsored ads and seo’d websites full of garbage matching the search keywords. Downside is that $5 a month just feels like a lot for something that you can almost get for free (outside of the sponsored stuff the results are pretty similar unless you turn up the small web setting)
I’m able to stay under 300 a month by using ff shortcuts to route simple repetitive searches (weather, sports scores, etc.) to ddg while sending the rest to kagi
