Things related to Kagi I remember from the top of my head:

- The Kagi guy doubled down on *not* displaying a helpline to people searching for suicide methods:

- More info on the Kagi guy here:

(He seems to be from the "we don't get into politics" camp.)

@efi @aeva They partnered with Brave for their search index and the response to the criticism was basically "we're trying to be a neutral search engine!"

They also have some LLM stuff.

@efi @aeva Here's a link if you need it: https://kagifeedback.org/d/2808-reconsider-your-partnership-with-brave

I unfortunately don't have a good link to the discussion around the socials at the time.

Reconsider your partnership with Brave - Kagi Feedback

Brave, as you know, is led by Brendan Eich. s homophobia is so disgusting that he was forced to resign as the leader...
