I also used Kagi, but decided to cancel my subscription last year when it was revealed they pay Yandex for their search, which is a Russian company that ultimately fuels the Russian war on Ukraine.

Once Kagi stops transferring money to Russia, I’d be happy re-subscribe.

Do you have a source how funding yandex funds the war? Yandex is a great search engine, so I would hate to find out that this is true

It's based in Russia so it presumably pays taxes and salaries in Russia.

I have the feeling that, if you look a little closer, a lot of products you are using are supporting atrocities somewhere directly or indirectly.
