Yeah the search has gone to shit. I've been using Duck Duck Go but I guess that is Bing based?
Also been trying out Kagi. The format is unsettling at first but it is nice to see the results I am looking for at the top instead of a bunch of bullshit ads / sponsored results and whatever along with crappy results below the fold.
I've been using Kagi for two months now and I can't recommend it enough. Whatever I search is always on the first results, no need to filter SEO crap.
Also it's incredibly fast.
I'm not a heavy search user so their lowest tier (5$, 300 searches) is more than enough for me. I can see how the costs can add up for someone that is a heavier user tho
I'm still figuring out what tier I should go for before I decide what to do.
But yeah it is quite zippy fast!
Try the low one for a month and set a soft and hard limit, then evaluate. That's what I did, but I didn't go beyond 260 searches hahaha
Any idea if its good for non US users?
I'm in Europe but I don't see why wouldn't it be good
