A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Seems fair, in reference to Kagi:

Unrelatedly: I’m concerned about the company’s biases, as it seems happy to use Brave’s commercial API (allowing blatant homophobia in the comments) and allow its results to recommend suicide methods without intervention. I reject the idea that avoiding an option that may seem politically biased is the same as being unbiased if such a decision has real political implications.

After using Kagi a few months I've switched to Brave, and been pretty happy with it. It can be low on image results, but for regular web results I haven't needed anything else.

Kagi was pretty good, but it didn't really seem good enough compared to Brave search to justify $10 a month.

Thanks. I used mojeek a few years ago and was not satisfied, maybe it's time to give it another go
