Merge information from draft

[edit]

@StreetcarEnjoyer Please integrate information from Draft:Kagi (search) into this article. Greatder (talk) 18:56, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Most of the information from the draft is here. I've added a bit of information about Orion Browser. Should more secondary sources arrive it has the potential to be spun off into its own article. StreetcarEnjoyer (talk) 21:13, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@StreetcarEnjoyer I'll remove the draft then. Greatder (talk) 06:06, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Poor citation for claims of not collecting user actions

[edit]

Reference 8 (at the time of writing) supporting "The site does not collect user actions such as searches" is simply a link to a news website which quotes an employee of Kagi. It's effectively just PR-speak. As far as I'm aware Kagi has not proved or demonstrated that they do not collect such data, so why is Wikipedia stating it authoritatively on the page? It should either be removed or amended to say that the site claims not to collect user actions. 82.69.74.205 (talk) 17:27, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Created Userbox

[edit]

I've created a Kagi userbox for myself, (and anyone else who'd like to use it).

I added it to the list of website userboxes too.

Criteria for reviews?

[edit]

The article has a section "Search results quality" that cites one comparison of Kagi to other search engines that is generally unfavorable. From a casual investigation, this seems unrepresentative of reviews of the search engine. Most assessments are more favorable to much more favorable towards Kagi than the one citation. But what I've found have been opinions of users rather than rigorous apples-to-apples comparisons.

The comparison cited is not dated as far as I can see which seems like a major drawback as I presume that as a new service Kagi is undergoing significant development. So, I am somewhat inclined to remove it. At a minimum I would be inclined to qualify the comment and add other assessments. But, as I said, I have not found rigorous reviews. I have not investigated Wikipedia's standards or norms for this sort of information so I am leaving it as is for now but wanted to flag it in the hope someone else has time/experience to edit this section.
