      I don’t think Kagi are unfair charging a subscription, it means they have financial incentives which aren’t mass cyberstalking like the adtech search providers. If a commercial service is free, you are almost certainly the real product.

      I’m happy with their pricing and service level, while I prefer to self-host good luck self-hosting a search engine.

        I don’t think they’re unfair at all for charging, and the price isn’t outrageous or anything. It’s just something I can do without having. I have other ways of ducking out of ads or being tracked.
