I find it pretty interesting that kagi is rated as Terrible search engine, even ChatGPT preforms better.

    What a huge wall of text, so horribly formatted using a very ineligible font and it looks awful on the phone.

    Plus it is kind of dumb to measure search engines based on such a low number of queries. You are introducing a huge bias and the generated search results are ranked by a single person also introducing his own bias. The idea is interesting the execution not so much.

      Idk, doing this “properly” would take an immense amount of effort and manpower. This feels more like a “let me get enough info for an educated guess” EDA process, which still seems to have taken a lot of effort and I appreciate it a lot.

        But basing a recommendation on a ballpark anectdotal evidence is eidiculous.

          Did he actually recommend one? That said, it’s obvious the author favors Marginalia personally, but there’s no point pretending they don’t have biases. At least for me, making them obvious helps.
