Wow what a social drama for a search tool . People are bored af

Nah, as a paying customer of Kagi and someone who cares about how I find information online, this is not about drama, it's about making informed decisions. In my case, the informed decision to cancel my subscription.

Also for a few of us who were considering a Kagi subscription, an informed decision to stay with our current search providers instead

Hm, just based on the discussion in the linked thread it does actually read as drama to me. Someone on there asked how to ethically evaluate the decision to choose one search engine over another. How is Google or Microsoft any better than Brave? Sure, I wouldn't want to give brave any money. But I also wouldn't want to give these other companies any money either.
