SearxNG instances are not working as well these days and I want something more reliable. I will just pay a subscription. Swiss cows is pushing subscriptions and I’m good with paying. Never tried Kagi.

Yandex affiliated with the regime
Kagi is impartial about using Yandex
Except “the best possible information” is filtered. That’s the whole point of a search engine is to 1.Find and 2.Filter. If your search engine is turning up Russian propaganda, that is NOT “the best possible information”.
any nation’s major search engine is going to be turning up propaganda.
imo it’s better to include it & state where it came from so people can discern.
personally i don’t believe the entire population of any country are all bad people and increasingly siloing global citizens from eachother is only going to increase the kinds of toxic nationalism which dangerous regimes use as fuel
There’s a difference between disbelieving an entire nation of people and disbelieving a state-sponsored propaganda factory.
which is why i’d say clearly identify the source so people can discern.
afaict if you want to fairly criticise kagi its for not moving fast enough on adding clear source referencing & adding methods for users to filter out source types.
is there something i’m missing? are there other reasons to suspect bad faith on kagi’s part?
Thank you. Vlads reply is a bit weird, especially since there is other topics that show yandex poisoning “good search”.
