google search results are still kind of useful especially for non-english language queries, anyone knows a good alternative?
searxng also doesn’t really seem to work these days…

I’ll check it out. Any opinion of it over something like duckduckgo?
It usually has better results. The features alone, however, put it above DDG.
Rankings aren’t static. You can block a site, pin it to the top of results, or just derank/promote it.
Want to redirect a domain? You can do that.
Want to see specific results? Like PDFs only, or maybe just small web, educational, news stories, forums, or whatever? Use a lens!
Love AI summaries? You can use them! Hate AI summaries? Don’t worry, they’re off by default and require you to press the small “Summarize” button.
You probably understand bangs, right? Using
!wwill search Wikipedia. You probably also know that some sites, such as Reddit, have shit results so using!rwould be worthless. Kagi supports bangs but also has what they call “snaps” - if you type@w, it will be replaced withsite:wikipedia.com.Oh, yeah, one more thing. No ads. There are no risks of misaligned interests between you, Kagi, and their advertisers.
Nice, I do a lot of this through other means. Like my taskbar is set up for ! notation. Thanks for the information. I’ll definitely give it a try.
