Shiiit, I really don't want to go back to Google and all their sponsored/AI/tracking bullshit. Any other privacy-focused search engines out there that don't rely on this?
Kagi
American company though. Not supporting that
Yeah I'm far too used to getting my search for free to pay for it. I'll fuckin' use chatgpt before I pay a subscription fee for that shit, even if it is a substantially better option.
Look at you having standards.
That's what I said before I used it, you can try it free for 30 days
I looked at it briefly, the only free option I saw was 100 free searches, which will not last your average user anywhere near 30 days. Shit that might not last me 3 days depending on what I'm doing.
I think you overestimate the average user
3 searches a day? Most people probably clear that just satisfying idle curiosity while sitting on the damned toilet.
This is why tech communities suck.
Too many shills and useful idiots trying to viral market bullshit.
Answers still Kagi. You get use of the basic tiers for all the big ai services.
You ever wanted to blacklist Quora from search results? You can do that too.
Not unless you have some way to get me a free lifetime membership, cause I've already made it pretty clear I'm not paying for it, and it wouldn't even let me use it without making an account when I checked it out.
Yeah buddy, i have answers i don't like too. Sucks sometimes.
