I was the same until I started using Kagi. I was planning to force myself to use it for a while to test it out, but after two days or something I changed my default search provider and not because of politics but because of results.
It feels like going 15 years back in time - to the time when Google found what I searched for instead of mangling and/or ignoring my actual query every single time.
(Note: it seems some people consistently get better results. I'm not saying it is impossible to get good results with Google, only that I personally have given up.)
Edit: I might sound like a paid shill but I am not. I only know the Kagi founder via HN as freediver and I have not received anything, neither money nor anything else from anyone related to Kagi. (With one big exception: good search results :-)
- jve 5y agoWell, searching "Kagi" won't give you any results on Google, so would have been helpful if you provided url: https://kagi.com/ https://kagi.com/
- skinkestek 5y agoEdit: Rant about Google removed. Google knows about it if you try searching for kagi search engine. Still not amazing, but given how mad I'm at Google I better compensate slightly. In duckduckgo.com it is the third result when I just search for kagi.
- notreallyserio 5y agoIIRC I read somewhere that Kagi limits you to only NN searches per day, but I forget how low NN was. Low enough I didn't investigate further.
- skinkestek 5y agoI never hit it that limit. Also with Kagi I don't have to test n different options to get ahead of dumbifier AI that keeps rewriting my queries into something that is simpler to answer :-]
