I'm a Kagi subscriber, too. But it is also partly a proxy for Google Search. My worry is the impact of Google Search quality degradation on Kagi. Mojeek doesn't cut it.
I end up doing a lot of searching with Mistral Le Chat (also a subscriber).
What I'd like to know is power cost difference between the two (on the server-side). Ie. is Mistral sustainable financially or are they also running on vc / burning money. Although France uses nuclear, so it is a drop in a bucket I suppose.
- espadrine 5mo agoI use Le Chat as default search engine, using this search engine string: https://chat.mistral.ai/chat?q=Give%20a%20list%20of%20links%20to%20webpages%20that%20best%20solve%20this%20search%20engine%20query%2C%20ordered%20by%20relevance%3A%0A%0A%s%0A%0A-%20Search%20in%20the%20language%20of%20the%20query%0A-%20Your%20answer%20should%20only%20include%20the%20list%2C%20no%20intro%0A-%20Use%20an%20ordered%20list%2C%20with%20a%20source%20marker%0A-%20Add%20a%20quick%20summary%20that%20answers%20the%20query%20afterwards https://chat.mistral.ai/chat?q=Give%20a%20list%20of%20links%... (In most browsers, you can input any URL with %s as the query string.) A negative is the high latency. (Looks like Mistral is not profitable yet[0]. It expects 1 G$ revenue for 1 G$ capex in 2026[1], so it is moving towards profitability, but to be fair it is building a couple datacenters.)
