i heard of this one years ago when it was first launched and then never again, which seems pretty indicative of the desire for new search engines. i just assumed it quietly folded due to the pandemic honestly, lol
@alyaza There is some interest among tech nerds, but that’s about it. The HackerNews crowd is pretty big on Kagi. But between SEO gentrification and large chunks of the internet retreating behind walled gardens, search engines just aren’t as good as they used to be.
it ultimately seems like a problem you have to solve at the source by just taking a wrecking ball to the benefits of pumping out spam. even the existence of SEO as a concept increasingly seems like a huge mistake we need to double back on
