Pika comments on Kagi now has a Fediverse Forums search toggle

is it really that much? I search a lot about my current desktop, and some about my proxmox server. I also like to search about ongoing tech trends like currently ive done a lot of research on the current ps5 jailbreak.

I just went and checked my current month usage at the moment and You are right though with the average. For this month so far I'm sitting at 2209 searches, my daily range is 28-308 queries (if I search "duckduckgo" as the keyword) the majority of them are in the 40-90 query range. A good chunk of them falls into gaming questions and linux questions.

for fun I just checked septembers, page total is 2627 queries and ranges between 40 and 167 pages a day with an average of 87.56 a day

august is 2445 with range of 29-189 and an average 78.87

The average searches per user on Google is something like 30 a month lol. But I'm a 500-1000 kind of guy.

Depending on what I'm doing it can get higher, especially if I'm doing dev stuff.

I guess I'm just surprised that you do that many searches and think paying for search is a waste of money. Being able to customise search results (block Pinterest, have MDN ranked higher, rewrite reddit.com to old.reddit.com, etc) is easily worth $10 a month to me.

But as I said to someone else, $10USD can be a coffee or a weeks wages depending on where you are in the world, so it's probably going to hugely sway people's views on if it's worth it.
