heh, you should see it now - they’ve expanded the features.
i’ll take a look at the controversy, thanks.
edit: skimmed it, looks like contrived controversy to me - a rather unprofessional software reviewer that isn’t willing to engage with their subject? no thanks… but to each their own.
We appreciate you, ignore those downvotes lol, you’re still getting upvotes.
It’s only $108/yr for unlimited searches, if you actually need that many. I’m a retired software engineer and search all the time, so I just went with the unlimited plan, but most people don’t actually search more than 300 times a month.

edt: also, you do get what you pay for. the search results are dramatically different - it’s easy to do a test search and compare the results.
Well, it’s only $108/yr for unlimited searches.
And I used to use search engines professionally for work (think potentially hundereds of searches per day, sometimes), so it’s easy for me to justify paying for quality.
But according the data, most regular folk won’t search more than 300 times per month. Some days you might search more, some you might search less, you know?
Wrong, retired software engineer here.
Some people use search for more than finding recipes and google has been sucking at professional search for a while now, as has been repeatedly reported at Hacker News
Awesome, that’s exactly the type of feedback from a professional that I was looking for - I feel almost exactly the same.
Other than I feel a little bit fanboy-ish now lol.
Indeed, similarly it is fine to ignore the downvotes in this post lol.
asklemmy isn’t news.ycombinator, afterall.
After using the trial for a month and reaching the limit, i decided to pay for the $108/yr unlimited searches.
Kagi did statistical analysis before assigning pricing (it was a long process that they would update us on while they gave us leniency on the quotas). They found that 300 per month was the sweet spot for a lot of regular people that might only search a few times a week or others that might only occasionally do deep dives.
edit: fixed an error, but also adding: no, i exclusively use kagi now on all my devices. give it a test run, it is dramatically different from ddg and googhell
SNAFU, it’s all sus anymore
Ever heard of “taking a piss”? Apparently you really like drinking piss.

You’re right, there are NO valid opinions, my bad.
“An opinion is a judgment, viewpoint, or statement that is not conclusive, rather than facts, which are true statements.”
It does today…
I am at a loss, you might have to explain that one to me - all I’ve got is either something was sus or Save Union Souls lol
I am in the same boat - Lemmy is like filtering down /all, which is nice for discovering new things, but in Reddit it is pretty nice to just accumulate things as you discover them and be spared the sometimes painful noise.
One of the best things that you can do for your mental health is to excise negative influences in your life. I’m a fence sitter, so not much blocking to do on our side.
If you don’t want an echo chamber, maybe you should start chatting with homeless or mentally ill people on the streets instead of living high-and-mighty on the internet.
However many years it takes for these LLM fools to wake up, hopefully they can find a way to laugh at themselves for thinking that it was cutting-edge to jam the internet into a fake jellyfish brain and calling it GPT. I haven’t looked recently, but I still haven’t seen anyone talking about neuroglial networks and how they will revolutionize the applications for AI.
There’s a big*** book, but apparently no public takers in the deep neural network space?
How many orphans? How many families destroyed? How much oral history lost? How much more will we ignore the UN?
IAEA is the international body responsible for standardizations on nuclear energy.
Four years is not a long span of time in the context of nuclear energy, where technological developments take the scale of decades.
This press release pertains to the newly announced western strategy for nuclear, low-carbon energy. That strategy is still current.
