I got a sub to Kagi a few months ago. It seems pretty good but I'm behind on the news. I've read a few things here and there, but can you explain a bit about the ethics?

Last I saw they still paid Yandex for access to that index (weigh how important that is yourself), they also pushed back on suicide warnings if you ask Kagi how to kill yourself, and I learned from this article that they may be using additional data sources that contain higher levels of homophobic sentiment.

Basically, the company's tagline is "Humanize the Web", but I don't think their actions thus far show we agree on what Humanize means.

Yeah, definitely something to keep an eye on. Might not renew and just start using Qwant.
