A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

If kagi is just an aggregate of other search engines why not just use a searx instance instead? Its open source and customizable.
Why not use a bicycle instead of a car? Because it's 10 miles to work.
One search engine is a hobby project, the other ones competes with Google and gives better results and ability to filter them and prioritize them as you want.
I'd consider it if they had some of the features Kagi has like raising/lowering/pinning/excluding certain websites from results, but every time I try it it still feels very light on features.
Because it's not just that.
