I guess we all kinda knew that, but it’s always nice to have a study backing your opinions.

    Do you find the limited number of searches enough? I’d do it if it were unlimited for $5, but not going to pay $10 for a search engine.

      I do 20-30 searches a day at work, so I definitely need to upgrade (annually it’s around 100$ so not bad at all).

      Their Universal Summarizer is awesome too

      It’s either money or your data. I prefer to pay with money. If enough people do, the price might lower (hopeium) or the competition might increase for the same service, creating better or cheaper services in the same space.

      I thought I’d burn through them but I haven’t had an issue. I use DDG for low hanging fruit but I’m going to stop bothering.

      I’m at 243 searches now and it resets in 8 days. Seems to be enough for me.

      I do use bangs quite a bit, so if I need to find a movie I go !imdb the matrix and if I’m looking for a book I can go !gr rando splicer which saves on search credits.

      Depends. I use search engines a lot as a programmer. I have over 600 so far. But the results have been good. I’m willing to pay for that.
