I've been hearing some good things about Kagi so i have been contemplating to try it.
It is subscription based but still;
If there is a service that serves me as a customer to better my experience using a search engine than I'll gladly pay for it.
I have been a Kagi subscriber for about a year and a half now. It is so much better than Google and DDG and everything else I've tried. It took a while for me to bite the bullet and pay, but now I'm paying for the year up front (for a nice discount, too). I would be very disappointed if I had to use another engine. They've even implemented a few feature requests I've had. That would never happen with Google.
With the rewrite rules, lenses, custom bangs, and domain raising/lowering, I get exactly what I need out of search.
It feels weird to pay at first, but it's a great service.
