Distrust everything by Kagi, they are the shadowy “private” company there is, it’s just propaganda.
Care to elaborate?
Basically everything being said here. They don’t offer the source code of quite a few of their apps, they have very delirious ideas about what is identifiable information, they are trying to jump into the AI bandwagon, they don’t seem to have a serious plan to keep financing all the things they are doing, the dude wants to do some filtering of news based on “biased” “unbiased”, doesn’t listen to critique from users, etc.
I’m interested where this comes from too. Is it just because they aren’t a FOSS project?

I’d rather pay for search, than to be the product of a search engine. Self-hosting a decent index is much harder than it seems. Kagi aren’t ontologically evil in the same way as Google or Microsoft so I think it’s the best option.

Why do I want this? There are already many browsers available, and this one isn’t even (apparently: yet) FOSS, so why should I be excited about this one?
There are only four browser engines running all the the different browsers. Each engine controlled by a massive company. Each company tries to capture user data with their default offering.
Orion browser claims it will i be different but that is currently just a claim.
If it’s WebKit-based, it is still using one of those four engines owned by large companies…the engine isn’t the selling point. As I read it, Orion is to Safari as Brave is to Chrome.
That’s a question for a search engine.
If you want a Webkit-based browser just use GNOME Web (formerly known as Epiphany).
…yes because that’s the only defining feature of this browser.
