Kagi is great for the kind of searches I do -- mainly searching for wikipedia articles, stackoverflow questions, etc. If I ever want to buy a product I don't know much about, I usually spend some time reading the megathread on whatever niche subreddit there is on the topic.
When I search Kagi for "best headphones" the first link on the page is to /r/HeadphoneAdvice, which is probably where I'd want to go. There are some not as good results down the page, but I never would have even seen them because the 1st link is what I wanted.
For "python exceptions" the top links are all to the python.org docs about exceptions, which is almost certainly what I wanted with that generic search.
If I search "steve jobs" or really <any famous person or event>, I want the wikipedia article 99% of the time, and that is the #1 result. I've gotten increasingly frustrated with google in the last few years that they've gone away from this behavior for lots of searches. Sometimes the wikipedia article isn't even on the first page.
So, for my use cases, Kagi is behaving totally optimally for all these searches.
