- harryp_peng 2y agoConsider this: You ask a question (go to google) to solve a problem. But an LLM solve it for you. That's why they are popular in programming. However, besides this, google is still my go to for relevant information on entertainment and news etc.
- animanoir 2y agoYeah, Kagi is more for academics and people wanting to search the real internet, not the pop one.
- salesynerd 2y agoRecently, I read on another HN thread that Kagi uses Google to build its index. If that's the case, the only way Kagi appears better than Google is that it doesn't show ads. Not sure, if my understanding is correct or not.
- Moldoteck 2y agokagi allows you to downrank or even ban or boost certain websites so that when you serach, if there is a result from that website, it'll be downranked or boosted based on what you set up. It also automatically downranks websites that use shady ad trackers. They are slowly building their 'crawler' too but it's more nuanced regarding how they do this
- kernal 2y agolol at paying for search.
