It’s quite interesting watching what domains Kagi users are creating personalizations for in the search engine.

You can block, raise, lower or pin selected websites. I noticed that reddit is one of the top raisers because people simply don’t find unbiased results otherwise.

    I’ve been enjoying kagi but it’s tough trying to operate with a limited number of searches. For example: when I’m struggling to put together some basic python I’m used to iterating through many different queries to find the results I need. At 1.5 cents a search (or whatever) I have to be more careful. I can’t swing $25/mo for my search engine at the moment.

      I’m in the same boat

      I feel it should’t be per search but rather limit billing to 1 per 5 minutes or something that is somehow identifying context so if I am searching for the same thing and trying out different queries to see what gives me the best result that shouldn’t count as 5 queries if I’m just adding or removing words from/to an earlier query

        This is a good idea. If it grouped similar searches together and only counted them as “one” it would feel a lot more usable.

      Have you used chatgpt for this? It’s incredible at putting together code and explaining code, much better than any search engine.

        Yep, that’s what I ended up doing. It worked amazingly well for my simple task while i struggled with “types” or something.
