    Can I sincerely ask what we’re supposed to use instead?

    Kagi has given me the best search experience ive had in at least a decade, I’m not going back to the enshittification engine, and everything else is just bing in fancy wrapping paper. Is there something else like Kagi? Is there something like DDG or Searx that arent just slightly better bing?

      Also looking for answers. I’ve been a Kagi convert for 5 months now and it has absolutely saved me time and effort.

      I was looking at Perplexity but it isn’t exactly the same.

      Feel entirely free to use Kagi, just remember that it’s run by an idiot and could blow up at any moment.

        Apologies, my question wasn’t rhetorical, I was genuinely looking for suggestions. I don’t want to use kagi if this is who is running it… BUT all the alternatives that I’m personally aware of are not options for replacement.

          basically the whole area is gallopping enshittification. Until this blowup, I had seriously been considering Kagi too.
