--- Comment #8 from Wyatt Childers <kdebugs.81do7@haxing.ninja> --- Just to respond to the comments raised... > I'm not passing any judgment on Kagi and I don't have anything against paid > products, but I'm worrying about what will happen if a user uses this entry > without having paid for a kagi.com account. I don't think it would result in > a very good UX. My concern is preventing problems stemming from that. I'd ask yourself what UX _would be_ acceptable. Kagi shows a login page, if you sign into your account, it continues the search. I don't know how you could get better UX for what the product is, or why that would be user hostile or confusing. In a sense, I think it's the predominance of Google and its decades long dominance of the search industry that's created an unfair expectation. > Having some providers preferred or not thus doesn't make a difference for > default setups. This isn't about being preferred, it's about being _included at all_. The current status quo is if you're a user of Kagi, you must be technically proficient enough to understand URLs and how to add the URL to KDE's search system. ... I'm not going to continue the fight; I ultimately don't think it's worth it at this point. You guys do great work, and it's not my intent to badger you guys into doing something you don't want to do ... but I will "go on the record" and say, I think you're getting this one wrong. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
