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?

Random 2-year-old article that assumes to instruct me on what I shouldn't do immediately in the title must be right.

thank goodness that the title of an article is usually followed by some more words!

I did chuckle at the end, where they really felt the need to drive in a second, "Do not use Kagi."
