      I didn’t even read OP’s post but…

      You state that Kaji is the best when actually they are clearly the worst

      It’s Kagi not Kaji. If you’re going to criticize something at least get the name right.

      If you pay them then everything you do on their site is linked directly do you.

      Privacy is not anonymity… and it’s a pev of mine that people confuse this.

      However, you can get pretty close to anonymity paying them in crypto:

      https://help.kagi.com/kagi/plans/payment-methods.html

      These “articles” from unknown websites su h ad ioslife are clearly a native ads, this one for Kaji. Kaijis marketing agency has a lot of bots on this platform so it will get upvotes and but you are fooling nobody.

          Hey could you point me to the blocklist that my domain is currently on? I am not able to find it on any public list. It also would be extremeley surprising to me if it was on a list as this is the first article I have shared with the world.

      TIL I am a bot. :)

      I also made it a point not to state anything is the best or the worst and mentioned that the choice is up to you and your threat model.

      Also, thanks to @[email protected] for pointing out my typos. I have fixed them now.

          Well now, that would’ve saved me a lot of time and research. I also wouldn’t have learned nearly as much from reading all the different privacy policies. Luckily, I didn’t do that which allowed me to create my own personal recommendations for my family and myself.

      I want to reiterate that I have no affiliation with Kagi or any other search engine, I currently don’t even pay for Kagi. I am just a human on the hunt for the best search engine to protect my family’s privacy.

      That said, I just saw your update regarding Sentry.

      Looking at Kagi’s Privacy Policy, there are two things to say in response to

      It states that Kaji is the best when actually they are clearly the worst, they do record your IP to deliver their services and they do share your data with a notorious 3rd party tracking company- sentry.io.

      “We do not log or store your IP address. Your IP address is used only temporarily when enriching location/maps searches, and is not shared with any other party.”

      “Anonymous logs are shared with Sentry when bugs, crashes, or warnings occur for debugging purposes.”

      Also:

      If you pay them then everything you do on their site is linked directly do you. I.e. zero privacy.

      “Searches are anonymous and private to you. Kagi does not log and associate searches with an account.”
