Been looking at Kagi for search which isn't bad but I don't want or need all the LLM stuff they put everywhere.
Is there a comparable (potentially also paid) search engine that does not spend their income building another LLM based browser or whatever?

@djsundog @tante … but it is “only” a proxy for Google and Bing as far as I can see. Depends on how fundamentally you want to get away from those if that is a solution.
