    Is Kagi really that much different? I used their free trial for a while and the results seemed similar to what I’m used to on Duck Duck Go, so I just went back to that. Maybe I should try it again.

      The default experience depends on what you’re searching for, usually traditional search engines fall apart pretty quickly when it comes to anything related to a possible purchase, or more technical/esoteric info.

      Tbf, one of Kagi’s killer features is its ability to up/down rank websites, which means you also need to spend some time customising it to your tastes. No more Pinterest, quora, medium, etc

        The problem sites are never the big ones for me, it’s always the weird niche blogs that have the answer to my question that end up being obviously AI generated.

      I mean regardless of how different it is, it’s exactly what you described in intention.
