That doesn’t mean the price has to be the same as a fucking Netflix subscription.
Which service uses more computation? Streaming HQ video to millions of people, or running a search engine. Keep in mind, search engines have existed since basically before the internet in some form or another…
Well, it costs Kagi about 1.5 cents to answer a search query. Consider how many searches you use in a month to determine how much they’re making off you at $10/mo.
I’m lucky enough to be in a position to be able to pay for products that I use, instead of relying on freemium, or ad-supported, or data-mined, or pirated products. That hasn’t always been the case for me, so I don’t judge anyone for making a different choice.
If they’re taking in less than 1000 searches of money for 3000 searches, the numbers still aren’t adding up. Someone is misinformed or the product still.
It’s just a bit too expensive imo.
The old saying goes: if you don’t pay for the product, you are the product.

For something I use constantly every day $10 is nothing
but for something you never use $10 is quite a lot.
$5/mo. If that’s too pricey deal with shit 🤷♂️.
Be nice, this isn’t the app next door.
