Pintrest owns all the top 7 blocked results. Good, they've earned it. I never understood why Google let them destroy Google Image search results.
Because they sued.

#83Re: Most promoted and blocked domains on Kagi
#84Is there an opt-in for sharing such analytics/telemetry/statistics/insights (or whatever the euphemism treadmill is at now) -- or did all customers "consent" to this simply by using private settings "used by at least 20 users"?
I'm not seeing a way to opt-out on any settings page

#85What I gather from this is few if any non-software devs use Kagi
8 of the top 10 "raised" sites are software dev sites and with #6 being MDN I'm guessing it's not just any software devs, is web developers specifically that use Kagi.
Am I drawing the wrong conclusion? Does that mean Kagi's days are numbered? What would it take for them to get enough non-web-devs that the top 10 raised looked more representative of the average internet user?

#86Wouldn’t such a statistic cause a feedback loop?
That's a concern as old as search engines themselves. https://tomslee.net/2008/03/mr-googles-guid.html

The average internet user is never going to pay for search. Trying to target them would likely be a mistake.

Not every business sets out to be the next Google
Loyal Kagi customer here, based on their posts and in my dealings with them, they are doing their thing and doing well
They are focused on privacy, do a great job of it, and their AI assistant is top notch (highly recommend you take a look, can choose from many models and swap out responses instantly, not even getting into the awesome search features)
Not commenting on your (good) who is the main audience question, rather the other point about if Kagi is doing well
I subscribed my girlfriend to it as well and tell people whenever the moment is appropriate
Really rooting for these guys to succeed long term
As an aside, when I got my Kagi subscription the first thing I did was lower Pinterest results
Re: Most promoted and blocked domains on Kagi
#89Not the point of the post, but i’m surprised to see less than a million queries per day. Is that all of Kagi, or just some subset?
They only have 43,000 members (stat from the same page), so that's 20 queries a day per member, which doesn't seem that crazy.
That said, 43k paying users is quite a bit of money, so if their team is small enough, that’s good enough, stable and steady income

#90I want to like and pay for Kagi but from australia it feels like it isn't behind a CDN.
