You mean my comment? It’s not. I have no relation with them other than a free account.

I think 2005-2010 Google was peak web search. It would have given me an obscure blog with the top 5 currency exchange offices. Kagi gave me one single crappy result, but it was still, sadly, better than what 2024 Google can do.

Why would Kagi pay someone to promote them on HN when there's already dozens of praise everyday here?

Even as a happy customer, I can see how suspect this praise can be, but remember that HN is exactly who Kagi was created for. And I don't remember having spend $10 a month on something that had that much impact on my daily life. It's _just_ a search engine, but I do about 50 search a day, and having great results each time while the other one is giving me more and more garbage results is huge. So I completely understand why people satisfied with Kagi can be noisy about how great they think it is.
