I'm not sure what to think about the price. I can't really imagine life without a search engine, even though I was alive for a couple of decades before search engines existed. I pay $400/month for my car, but my search engine arguably gives me more value (I am lucky not to need to drive a lot). I wouldn't pay $400/month for a search engine. But $5-10 to have a degree of freedom from the tracking and results that aren't just trying to get my money? I am intrigued.
Idk, maybe it should be usage based. I feel like 60/yr is too much. I'd be fine with 19.99/yr but idk what they're costs are. Otherwise, I do like the idea. Confession, I haven't used it yet but I plan to signup and try the first 100 searches free.
