200 searches a month and then having to pay extra per search is a hilariously bad offering.

This isn’t 2008 mobile contracts, I don’t want usage caps for basic functionality.

I recently gave Kagi a try after using DDG, and signed up for their $10/month plan. However, I found myself running out of searches within the first 20 days, which left me feeling hesitant about making any additional searches due to the extra cost. While I do want to support Kagi's success, I personally found the cost of $10-15 per month for search to be a bit steep. Perhaps I have unrealistic expectations on how cheap search should be, but for now, I'm not sure if the cost is worth it for me.
