minus-squaredan@upvote.aulinkfedilinkarrow-up8·1 year agoMany people would prefer a paid service over an ad supported one.
minus-squareikidd@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·1 year agoMany people would prefer that their search history isn’t associated to personal and payment information.
minus-squaremeliaesc@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoI generally agree with that, but as an aggregation service it would need to justify not providing any actual content/information with its price structure. The same argument against AI models trained with user data.
minus-squaremonobot@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 year agoIt still costs money for hardware and hosting. Scraping web and training AI ain’t cheap.
minus-squareJezza@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·edit-21 year agoPeople expect a free thing to always have your best interests at heart. Kagi makes sense to me. I pay for a product. (just as a random side note, lenses alone would make it worth it)

minus-squareCorigan@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoI’d be curious to sign up if the paid version wasn’t search capped. I search a lot of random stuff or typo etc I feel like I’d burn through the allowance in 2 weeks
