I just went back to starter from ultimate because they are now adding 19%(?)VAT in Germany and so I resumed paying for gpt4 which adds dall e for 7 euro less (22 openai, 29 Kagi ultimate) IF I stick to 10 searches a day. I forgot about this new distribution setup immediately and prompted by this thread I now find that in the first 6 days back on starter I used 11 searches per day so there is hope.

I had tried using Kagi just for home use since the bulk of my searches are work related (Kagi is not something I can claim as an expense, before you ask) but still found little added value beyond "I think I like this more".

I did also try a bunch of side by side searches "for work" (so mostly leading to stack overflow) and they were the same results, more or less, for my searches between Kagi and Startpage.

One thing I found myself doing as I became conscious of my search quota limitations is going directly to sites and searching there using the local search. This doesn't seem like a bad thing but it's one more step in an already friction filled process. :)
