Even though Kagi looks and sound nice, I can't cope with signed-in-required search.
I understand that their business model is "you pay, you are our user, we won't sell your data"[1] But there is a simple privacy-friendly business model to be made with free anonymous search engine as well, when you look for "horses" we show you ads of horses. This is what Duckduckgo Search and Google Search both do. (Well google then runs ads on many website which are then linked to your search query, that's the real issue)
Now with Kagi, I have a company which knows all my darkest secrets whether I use a different computer behind a VPN or not.
