UBlacklist: Blocks specific sites from appearing in Google search results

I never managed to get it to stick, $10/mo for a search engine seems like a lot, when compared to the free DDG, and from what I remember the results weren't impressively better, just maybe a bit better.

Yeah, $10/month is too steep and the only reason I’m not signing up. I’d sign up for $3.

I suspect Kagi aims to corner the premium market. The 300 searches will probably get discounted. But I don’t think they should nor will discount unlimited searches + AI.

I'm not going to play the guess your usage game.

They can give me the best rate with a cap or I'll wait for the competitor to show up. Duckduckgo is fine enough for now.

I feel the same way, I'm not going to count my searches, and I don't want to start guessing whether this search is important enough to use Kagi for.

Nobody wants a three dollar customer. They'll complain, ask for special features, do chargebacks on their payments etc.

I tried kagi for a bit, but these days I think phind gives the best results for cs related searches. In addition to good search results, it shows llm responses with a chat interface to continue that chain.

Phind gave me really underwhelming results when looking for more technical topics, where it misses the point totally.
