Another useful feature for power users that Google is killing.

They don't care about us that day they we have a problem and the solution is in a now defunct site. That doesn't generate revenue. "When People search on Google they need to find what they need on a click on the ads", the shareholders are saying

Kagi! I can’t say it enough, it’s the new growth in the underbrush from the dumpster fire of google. Web archive of sites is there and tot can use context filters. You can even prioritize sites in results. I don’t to see Pinterest in results ever again.

Yes it’s a paid search, but the priority is bringing quality results without ads. This is a reasonable trade off to me that, so far, keeps their interest in serving the searching end user as their customer, not their target.
