I feel that if you don't pay for a product, then you ARE the product. Even if Kagi isn't perfect, the payment model should be supported to foster this kind of internet.

I agree with you, and I would just balance your statement out a bit and say that while the payment model should be supported, we should be wary of weak business models or predatory marketing that open up the door to just a different flavor of enshittification.
