I apologize if this is old news, but I just noticed it. It looks like Kagi has added Fediverse Forums as a default Web search option.

Cool. Wish more search engines would do that.
But, as far as Kagi goes, it's a paid service and it's an American company. So I won't be using them.
Not using Kagi because its an American company is valid. But people are too used to products that are free because they make the person using them the product. There is still a transaction with a free product.
Kagi is not free because they respect your privacy and don't sell your data.
I'd happily pay for search, but Kagi is way too expensive.
10 searches a day, for $5/month? (US)
Like, that is way too much.
I can receive thousands and send thousands of emails per day for that price. Is search really that much more expensive?
Maybe. They use several other indexes as their backend so they have to pay microsoft for every search
