Big same. I’ll even bang out to Startpage to try to avoid directly using Google (!sp vs. !g), but that’s not as good either.

I bow to my search overlord Google. Until I try Grasp, Kagi, and SearXNG, and hopefully one of those will satisfy (in particular SearXNG).

Until then DDG remains my default, and I’ll !g half the time :(

Did you use Kagi? How was it?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Been using Kagi for a few months. Now that the unlimited tier is $10 it's a no brainer, for me.

One of the three on my to-try list, still.

I tried it a few months ago and bought it before the trial was over. Took some time to build trust but it’s still on par with google if not better.

(My account probably looks like a shill for them but I swear I’m just a happy user)

I also really like Kagi, and their bundle for Ultimate users of the various text AI tools is also very helpful for work.
