I tried out Kagi, but then I asked myself: “why pay for it if it's only marginally better than Google?”. Then I realized Kagi has won. The sentiment about non-Google search engines used to be something like “XY is slightly worse than Google, but it respects your privacy, why not use it instead”?. The trade-off is no more. So I am customer since then. Love the domain ranking system.

I hope they will continue to focus on their core product and don't branch out to do something else.
