Is anyone paying for Kagi, the search engine? What is your experience with it? (kagi.com)

Kagi is a subscription-based search engine that argues that paying for search is a reasonable thing to do in order to avoid ads and companies selling your information. They also have lenses, e.g. for searching the fediverse specifically. Anyone that wants to share their experience of using Kagi?

The free trial lasted me 2 months. I then bought the year subscription and have been evangelizing Orion to all the iPhone-users in my friend group and my family. This is the only subscription I am willing to pay for.

Really, when you pay for Kagi most of the money actually is supporting the development of the Orion browser. I eagerly await the release of the Linux version of Orion. It's like Brave, but without any of the crypto bullshit that keeps me from reccomending Brave to people.

I love Orion as well. Being able to install extensions on a mobile browser (on iOS) is sick.
