I've started using "search it" or "kagi it" just to avoid using the term google. I can't even remember the last time I used Google on purpose and got useful results.
When you say "kagi it" does anyone ever know what you're talking about?
I didn't know that word. So I duckduckwent it.
I binged it. Still don't understand.
I think maybe 1-2 people in my entire time of doing it, but now at least the people I talk to regularly in software engineering know.
I know Kagi has its drama, but I can't get past how useful it has been to me. I did get a new home lab server recently so I may start setting up something for SearXNG.
