I’ve commented about potential Kagi astroturfing here before.

Seems likely to me.

Their trial - too short for me - felt like a private Google w/improvements.

Now, as a filthy freeloader, my default is DuckDuckGo. I am dissatisfied with the results and !bang out to Google (!g) about half the time. I pray DDG makes use of this data to improve their engine.

tl;dr astroturfing vs. bad results vs. enabling the king of adware

Gosh I need to set up SearXNG! Also “private Google” vibes. Instances here
