I actually use pinning, blocking and raising/lowering the value of individual sites every day. I wish this is the direction search engines went in the first place and it's the direction I hope Kagi continues. I want a personalized search engine that's personalized by me, not by a company trying to profile me and make money off of my clicks.

When each user can personalize the results themselves, you make SEO completely impractical because they can no longer target a single monolithic algorithm controled by one entity. Websites would actually have to have organic appeal to users, who get the final say to hide away bad sites from the results page (looking at you, Quora, Pinterest, and Fandom).

I am all for Kagi keeping that feature. If for nothing else then to rub it in the face of every googler who have argued that it was impossible.

And if you use it I am happy, that gives Kagi an incentive to keep it around.

I'm just saying that for me the results are so good out of the box that with a couple of exceptions I never had to block anything.
