I dumped Google for Kagi

Fed up with Google's intrusive AI search features, a user switched to Kagi, a paid search engine that prioritizes actual results over ads and AI content. Kagi offers superior customization options, including the ability to prioritize or block specific websites, and protects user privacy with features like Privacy Pass. For around $100/year, users get a clean search experience with no ads, no tracking, and more relevant results.
