Do we really need many of more of these posts? Just leave already. It’s not a special thing, leaving a platform with billions of people. Robots.txt has been around since… forever?

Kagi is awesome. And frankly, it's the end game. Just pay for your search full stop. The original 1990's assertion that "information wants to be free" and all that related nonsense never really passed the laugh test.

Being able to search the web is critical to day-to-day life. Why wouldn't you pay for it? I pay for all sorts of dumb stuff I barely use. I use Kagi every day.

Because I am paying for their service, I know that they are trying to provide me the best service they can - we are aligned. I want to pay for good service, they want to get me good service.

I pay for Kagi not because of political value system. I pay for it because it's just better than Google. I encourage you to try it. It's night and day.

I've been thinking a lot about what it would take to build a simple search engine again. I think the time for a decentralized search engine that is human vetted is now. In a way that's what sites like reddit/HN ect have become, but I think we need a real search engine not just a social network. Looking to alternatives does not leaving me feeling great right now, DuckDuckGo is just bing IE microsoft and that's not really a better trade.
