Now you have a chance. Kagi is there.

I made my decision two years ago and I would probably do it even if it was just on par with Google, to support competition and to avoid supporting Google.

But in hindsight it is just exeptionally much better. There is no going back unless Kagi does something monumentally stupid.

I'm a Kagi user too. I like your enthusiasm, but I can't say it's been all that life changing for me. DuckDuckGo is ok too, I still use it on some machines when I don't feel like logging in. GPT has been more life changing.

Don't know what I am doing wrong but except the first few times I really didn't get good results with Kagi.

It might be that I rely a lot on precise queries and doublequoted words and also cannot get myself to use the conversational style that at least Google seems to prefer now.
