Same here as a paying user, I suspect that the recent change to unlimited searches on the monthly plans may have hit a bit harder than expected.

Haven't had any searches outright fail though. Waiting a couple seconds is still better than instantly getting a bunch of AI garbage from Google.

Yeah, I'm very confused by this post. The last few days/weeks Kagi has taken _very_ long to respond. I end up refreshing the page because it doesn't even show a loading indicator -- just a blank results page.

Interesting that there's several corroborators here. My own Kagi searches have been consistently speedy. I'm a heavy Kagi user on a Kagi for teams plan, in the UK, if any of that is relevant.

I’ve been using Kagi for over a month as a paid user, and it has been slow this week for me too.
