Edit: Actually if you are looking for more things to explore the kagi github has some interesting other stuff like the smallweb page and the opml file of rss smallweb feeds:
I use Kagi. I like the search a lot. This is completely irrelevant to what I want from them. At least with Orion browser it’s associated to the general use case of privacy. I fail to see the angle here?
When Facebook and Google take views and traffic away from news sources through summaries and amp and the rest, it’s bad. But when Kagi does it it’s now good?
It has a “Business” section, but it defaults to US and doesn’t have any customization (in Settings->Categories) to choose business/economy/financial news from other countries or regions. I wanted to provide feedback from the “Give Feedback” option in the Settings screen, but that opens up the Kagi feedback forum and requires creating an account. I’m not that invested in anything Kagi to go through this amount of trouble.
I would prefer in-app feedback forms to be simple forms that collect information right within the app without having an account, logging in, etc.
This seems about as relevant to their core search product as building a clothing import/export/logistics business[1].
I wish they’d focus entirely on search, because that is where innovation is sorely needed. I used Kagi for a little while and could see it becoming huge if they added more user-friendly features.

- category doesn’t make sense. World are all USA news, business are mostly big tech, tech are most big corp
- the way it digests the news and chop it down to timeline/question/summary feels overly dumb down.

I don’t use any social media and have attempted to get my news in the most basic and unbiased form possible.
After finally acknowledging I could never keep up with my RSS reader, I started using Particle a month ago, but I still feel overwhelmed.
Kagi News feels like a sweet spot at the moment, time will tell but this is as much context and unbiased aggregation as I need/want.
Only feedback is allowing custom categories? Right now is enough to get me functional, but I’d love my more niche topics to be available.
But please please let me select text!
I wanted to look up a word, so I double taped it to select it, then I realized non of the text in the articles is selectable
