Happy @kagi.com user of many years now. Whenever I accidentally end up using Google it’s a jump-scare. I’m reminded of just how far Google has fallen in their mission of organising all of the world’s information and making it universally accessible and useful.

That marks a full year with @kagi.com. It doesn't feel abnormal to pay for search any more, especially when I see others using Google and being force-fed made up nonsense and ads. I'm not an affiliate, I just think we'd all be better off being mindful about this.

I've been meaning to give it a try! This is a good reminder. Probably going to do that today.

I was excited to try this until I saw that they’ve pumped Gen AI into everything.

Have they? I don’t see anything except a “quick answer” button I never click.

Their website is all about their AI features, and doesn’t indicate that there’s any option to turn it off. They seem to have fully bought into the scam.

how would you "turn off" something that is only "on" when you voluntarily activate it? just don't use it and you'll literally never see it
