@louis @donaldball What •this• previously paying Kagi thought he was paying for was:
- decent search results
- without ads
- without privacy abuses
- without appeasing authoritarians
- without ignoring human impact
- and, in general, with greater concern for ethics than Google has shown of late
When they marketed themselves as “humanizing the web” — their term — that’s certainly the picture I got.
Not “search quality at any cost, nothing else matters.”
