I’ve been using Kagi for a while and it’s nice to see them embrace the Threadiverse.

    They just added the homophobic (or at least the CEO) Brave browser’s search engine as a source and I don’t know whether to feel unhappy. I’m paying a bit to Brave monthly, but then again I was paying API fees to Google too.

      There is no ethical consumption in capitalism. The best you can do is try and make sure your primary contact points with the system are good but once you get more than a step or two into the food chain there will always be dirt.

      Especially if you’re going to the level of personal beliefs of executives. I guarantee you gave more money to a dozen people way worse than him before lunch today than he’ll make in a year off your Kagi searches.

        He can still think it sucks though and nothing you said changes that.

        Hey guys remember when Brave packed in a crypto miner with their software and didn’t tell their users?

        Man that was cool

          Oh no I think Brave is garbage. I just don’t think their CEOs beliefs are a good reason to not use Kagi.

          And like, everyone should be using Firefox or a fork. Chrome monoculture endangers the free web.
