I haven't found quoting helps much. I also feel like i shouldnt have to craft search queries with a lot of inurl or other tags or quoting. Kagi just seems to work better. Its worth 10$ a month to me to not have to worry about it, I use search engines a lot.

and intext: ? I didn't say that quoting solves it

I have been using search for engines for 30 years, my queries are not vague, i put as many keywords and "inurl"s and whatnot in as i can manage. I dont use kagi blocklists. Google results for my specific queries are garbage. I am much happier with kagi. If you are happy with google, thats fine too. Perhaps we are just in different bubbles and mine are not well served by google.

You’re paying Google via the profile they have of you. Remember there’s no such thing as a free lunch while you’re feeling so superior

Have you used Kagi? It’s easily 10x if not 100x better than Google.
