Kagi seems to be one of the few companies that put out services, genuinely trying to fix things with good intent. I hope it stays that way. (I was very skeptical about Kagi Assistant but now i am a happy Kagi Ultimate subscriber).

I like assistant, but I use Claude directly mostly. It's handy for really quick stuff though.

I like that Kagi charges for their service, so their motive is to provide services for that cost, and not with ads on top of it.

RSS is a strange choice in 2025. As a search engine they are in the position to extract things from web pages themselves. They already need this capability in order to properly rank the page.

Why? I do use it and can't imagine following anything without it... And I keep hoping that it will come back and replace absolutely terrible schizophrenic feeds from meta/x/etc

> One daily update: We publish once per day around noon UTC, creating a natural endpoint to news consumption. This is a deliberate design choice that turns news from an endless habit into a contained ritual.

I might not agree with all decisions Kagi makes, but this is gold. Endless scrolling is a big indicator that you're a consumer not a customer.

I LOVE this. The app feels very clean, the data's presented beautifully, and it hasn't been enshittified yet. And hopefully never will, because I pay Kagi in hopes that they don't.

I feel this is what Apple News should've been. Instead it's just god-awful ad-filled mess of news articles. And the only reason I have it is because of Apple One. But it is a clearly neglected product.

I also pay for ground news but it hasn't met my expectations, mostly because there's a lot of redundancy with wire stories. Like it'll show 50 sources but they're all just regurgitating the same AP or Reuters article. So it skews the "bias"

sites like these make me realize that i’m not all that interested in “news”, which might be a personal fault, but also makes you wonder what all the other “”news”” sites have been doing to capture my attention...

The World section seems to have a heavy bias towards news from the USA.

The UK section seems to have a heavy bias towards news from Scotland.

It looks too simplistic for me to actually use.
