Kagi are one of my favorite companies. In a world where buying a T-shirt requires me to hand over my phone number ("in case we need to contact you about your order" - yeah, right) I find it so refreshing that kagi barely require any info from me except some form of payment.

I had to send them my address…for my free t-shirt ;)

Is there a way to disable this? We have a strict no-ai policy. Even having it available will be an issue and I may not be able to use Kagi at work.

Can you describe the why of the policy and if you are ok sharing the industry?

I am also curious if you have other restrictions on information sharing, API usage, and what reference documentation to use.

Settings > Search > Manage search AI features

Has the option to turn off Auto AI feature.

It might be an good idea to post on their support forum.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Firefox on Android has an accessibility setting called "Zoom on all web sites" that gets around this. Firefox's reader mode would help with this as well. It's a shame we need these workarounds instead of all websites being accessible by default :/

The original android browser had something much better, zoom until the size was right, double tap to reflow to fit

Opera Android does support reflowing.

I was given a free month of Kagi to test, and it had so many rough edges that during the last days of of the trial I was already using Google again. Notable issues for me: - maps (from Mapbox) are really bad. Sluggish performance and lack of information - barely any info boxes - no translation feature ("gründonnerstag englisch") gives me links to leo.org (which was a cool site in the 00s) and to other sites, but Goog…

How about a custom Bang for dict.cc?

Bang shortcut could be "dcc" with URL: https://www.dict.cc/?s=%s.

Then you can translate using "!dcc gründonnerstag".

If the staff sees this - please stop preventing zoom. Not only is that bad for accessibility, it makes the article less useful for everyone - there's a screenshot included showing off the feature, but it's too small to read on the phone and I can't zoom in.

I can look into it. Can you clarify what you mean? Article zooms in normally for me (Orion browser/iOS).

I unfortunately don't make the policies, or always agree with them. But, I do have to follow them.

I don't like how this was rolled out. I'm currently paying for "Unlimited Kagi Assistant" and the Kagi website STILL advertises "Unlimited Kagi Assistant". And they stealthily rolled in limits? I pay the same amount, but it's no longer unlimited, and I only know about this because I happened to notice it on HN. Otherwise I would only know after hitting a limit.

Afaiu, with Unlimited you have more tokens available and more models to choose from.
