Default search status doesn’t come cheap, but it’s worth it to Google.

    I happily pay $10 a month for Kagi and it’s freaking great.

    I’m never going back to Google.

      You pay for a search engine? You have a subscription to a search engine? I’m I understanding that right?

      It is a search engine right? My brain is struggling with this.

        Is there something about search engines, as opposed to other online services, that makes you expect them to be free?
