Honestly I'd love to try kagi but it's so hard to de-googleify your life when you use Gmail and use an Android phone. Like, I'd like to, but it feels like such a pipe dream if I want to use tech I've grown accustomed to.
Especially bc kagi expects a subscription (it should, searching isn't cheap and I like not being the product) but when money is tight it's hard to justify paying for searching when Google and co are right there
