3 months ago I observed that Kagi was slipping in quality. They admitted it themselves in blog posts and explained that it is happening because Google is cracking down on the grey market providers that Kagi uses to access Google's index.
Well today I'm sad to tell you that it's only gotten worse, will continue to get worse, and there is likely nothing Kagi can do about it until they have their own index.
I'm still using it for my searching but irrelevant sites are slowly taking up more and more of the results. Switching to verbatim reduces the amount of results to almost nothing.
I would pay double to get back the Kagi I first signed up for.
