Kagi now has a Fediverse Forums search toggle
It’s too bad they require a subscription. I’ll never use this shit for this reason alone.
This attitude is why the internet is full of ads. Doing shit for free doesn’t happen on an empty stomach. I’d rather pay a fair price for software and services I use. I’m not saying anyone’s pricing is fair, just pointing out I don’t agree with this behavior.
I would pay, for my personal use. But a lot of the time I’m on my company corp network, on a company device. And I don’t mix that with my personal logins and personal devices.
Petition your IT for a subscription. Worst they can say is no right?
I’d pay if it wasn’t based in the US.
Fair point.
They have a free tier with 100 searches! It doesn't sound like a lot but I usually don't cross it.
I crossed it in a few days. Some people use the web pretty heavily.
I’d pay for it if their $5 a month tier wasn’t so limited
No one should have to pay to search the web. They’re as bad as all the other monetized bullshit.
Im okay with it tbh. The everything must be free on the internet mindset is what led ads working its way in everywhere.
It costs money to maintain software?
I like what Kagi are doing, even though I don’t pay for their search engine. I’ve been enjoying browsing the Kagi Small Web portal recently.
That’s fucking awesome but the ranking is highly questionable.
I searched myself and a 4 upvote comment was the top thing.
