- senko 2y agoKagi user here, I almost never need to !g. Used DDG a few years back and stopped after I had to fallback to Google for most qs.
- girvo 2y agoGoogle is so odd these days, its like there are two "streams" of results. One is the kind of useless slop that the article in question is rightfully complaining about, but other results are still useful and high quality. The second stream is what I seem to get when I'm forced to "!g" when I'm using DuckDuckGo, and I can't work out why theres this stratification, this separation. Years ago, it was very rare to get crap results from Google. Now its far more common.
- alpaca128 2y agoIt took me about two weeks until I got consistently good results with DDG, it often just takes about one more search term because it doesn't try to (often incorrectly) guess the context based on search history like Google does. That was years ago, since then DDG has gotten better and Google a lot worse. I could understand your complaint if it was about image search, but I don't see how anyone can look at today's Google results and think they're still superior.
- viraptor 2y agoKagi is simply better in every way I can think of and I've been a paying user for over a year now.
- justinclift 2y agoHaven't needed to use Google at all since using Kagi several months ago, whereas when using Duck Duck Go for a few years (prior to Kagi) I'd (very occasionally) need to.
