It looks like just another search engine trening towards Ai UX. Do they have an API?
I'm now looking for APIs to integrate with my custom / personal agent setup. I'm done outsourcing my UX to Big Ai/Tech. I don't think we should repeat the same mistakes of outsource a core human/digital UX to Big Ai/Tech. We (HNers) complain so much about all the bad stuff the prior iterations (social media, saas out the wazoo), are we going to repeat it again by defaulting to whatever they give us, misaligned incentives and all?
That’s cool. I’m going another route, where I’m trying to pay for independent apps that give a shit about quality. I want nice things, but I also want to back the people who give a shit about craft and don’t have the time to DIY my own universe anyway.
If you’ve got screenshots or details on your personal masterpieces I’m interested to see it.
I pay for things that I care about the quality for. Seeing another search company trending towards Ai centric means, to me, they are not focused on search quality any more. They have bills to pay and everyone is chasing that Ai revenue now, to the detriment of their primary product before the hype cycle started.
The neutral reviews of Kagi I have seen don't lead me to believe there is some superior quality awaiting me if I just give them the money

Saying something like this, in this way, is not constructive and not how to bring people towards your way of seeing things. You, specifically with this comment, make me even less likely to use Kagi, and pay less attention to things you may say in reply or otherwise in the future
You may have misread the thread. I'm saying your note that "I'm done outsourcing my UX"—the very thing that makes both DDG and Kagi unsuitable for you—sounds like you're building something novel, even if it's exclusively to scratch your own itch.
If its ever in a place where you'd be open to sharing, that's the sort of thing I come to HN for.
