Search engines shouldn't cost .5% of your monthly salary
How do you feel about ads in your search?
Minimum wage in Germany gets you ~1700€ after taxes, making 5€ closer to 0.3% of your income. Beside that there are so many other things you could save a bit on instead of complaining about a single 5€ subscription for an actually very important service

Good thing that it seems to be made in portugal where the minimum wage is half than that and where housing is currently being set at 50 or 60% of that wage.
