View the top domains that users create personalizations for.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Some of the commenters are raving about the ability to boost and block certain domains. It’s an intersting idea, but at the moment it’s not clear to me how I would use this.<\/p>\n

It’s a subscription service, but Google has gotten so bad that I think it’s become worth it for me at least.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I have been trying Kagi on and off for over a year. Overall, I have not been impressed. The results have been OK. There definitely seems to be less spam at the top of the results, but in general the pages that I wanted haven’t been at the top, either. But today, for the first time, it found a good result for me, at the top of the list, that I hadn’t found at all with Google or Bing. So Kagi is not my default search engine, but I intend to keep it in the rotation. I think we’re firmly back in the pre-Google world where it’s common to need multiple engines to find stuff.<\/p>\n\n
