I read that stuff a few weeks ago. And the responses and discussion on Kagi's Discord. I'll continue to monitor Kagi's behavior, of course, but for now I prefer Kagi. I get far more relevant results with no advertising noise and as much or as little "AI" assistance as I want.

Google is a cesspool and DDG is simply inferior - worthy, but inferior.

Using Kagi is not a bad decision. After reading a lot of positive things about it and beeing quite hyped, I was so ungently reminded, that every good thing comes with its own baggage of bad.

I thought I share it, so that everyone can make their own decision.

I also tried Metager, a german meta search engine. Sad to report: not usable for me, although I like their club (suma-ev) and donated some money towards them.

For now it's DDG I guess. :-(
