Why Google is so unbearable, and how to fix it

I've given up on google for search and I'm not going back. I've been beta-testing kagi search [1] for the last couple of months and it does 95% of what I need - accurate and low-distraction and it doesn't try to sell me stuff or sell me to anyone. They're about to go into public beta and announce their pricing, and I'm pretty sure I'm in.

Kagi has been fantastic to me. The search results seem better. The option to search by EDU or discussion or by "literally anything that doesn't have 5000 trackers" with a single click is indispensable. Showing results from the internet archive and old blogs is a nice plus. Shoving all the listicles into their own compact section is great.

If this is the quality I can expect going forward, I have zero problem paying the $10/mo down the line
