Kagi is better than all the others combined. Yes you have to pay for it. If you spend any time on the Internet day-to-day then it's worth it.
Doesn't seem to play nicely with Firefox Android unfortunately. Which is ironic because Chrome on Android is one of the areas of Google I decided to experiment degoogling from just a week ago or so
I use it on Firefox Android and it works fine. Go to
settings/search/default search engines, then tap "add a search engine". You can even use a token to enable Kagi in private browsing. Then you just select Kagi instead of one of the other options.Ah I was just going to their website and it was refusing to load the page. But then when I tried it on Chrome it was fine.
I'll have a play around later, cheers
I just started trialling kagi the other day and I'm enjoying it so far but one thing I miss is how reliably Google can tell me opening hours when I search for a local cafe. The web results have been better so far, though.
I just use Google maps for that. It will ALWAYS show the hours if they're listed, instead of sometimes like on Google results pages. On my phone I use the maps app and on my desktop I go to maps.google.com.
yes, google maps is still king fothat I guess. After a bit more searching on Kagi, though, I'm really liking it, is there a way to see how many searches you have left?
Yup! Go to account/settings/billing and it'll tell you. I thought I would use more than 1000 every month, but so far I'm averaging about 700.
Thanks!
