Preferably one that doesn't censor search results. Like DuckDuckGo, apparently

If there were no problems with payment from Russia, then I would gladly pay for kagi. but unfortunately there is no such possibility due to sanctions 🙁

Whats it like there right now?

Yes, in general, everything is not bad, hardware, for example, is all available. But paying for foreign services/donations is difficult. Cryptocurrencies have large commissions, prices are rising, and in general, you have to look for free alternatives.

Can you get ahold of crypto? They take bitcoin and i pay for it using monero via trocador.app

Large commissions when replenishing a wallet/transfers, and Kagi itself is quite expensive for me to afford it)

[–] shortwavesurfer@monero.town 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ah. They do have a $5 plan if you werent aware. But large commissions i can understand would be a problem

300 searches per month? phthhthtpttpphppt, pre one day, maybe would be ok :)
