I have switched a while ago and don't have specific examples at hand. I do use quite some technical questions for work, and struggled with getting answers to them from duckduckgo. Kagi barely ever needs coaxing, and when it fails I can't get results from google either.
I know the appeal of cynicism, but it’s not the best long-term strategy.
Unless you rely on the goodwill of people running open-source searches like SearxNG, you’re paying for your search services or providing them with reasons to enshittify by blocking ads. On google, duckduckgo, and many others you pay with your attention to ads and with your data. They have the incentive to keep you longer on the search page to show you more data, contrary to your goals. For Kagi makers the way to get rich is much more straightforward: make good search and get many paying users.
I have a very different experience: duckduckgo only succeeded in simple queries for me, anything complex failed and I had to switch to google. And Kagi works for me even better than google.
Auf einer grünen Wiese 2x8 km Flugbahn und Gebäude zu bauen, oder 50 km unterirdische Bahnen und Tiefbahnhof inzwischen existierender Infrastruktur… Ist es ein fairer Vergleich?
Anecdotal evidence, but when both my wife and I participate in a VoIP call from the same device, the codec carries my wife's voice much more poorly than mine, and she has to repeat her words way more often. I vaguely remember hearing the same issue in calls with female colleagues.
I hope that you have found something that works better for you.
What do you think about my observation though?
