I am sick of ads, so I am seeing if paying a subscription give me better experience. I thought I would try Kagi again. Four issues in the first 30 minutes.

I do not know how to submit feedback. I am presented with Bug or Feature. I don't know, I just have general feedback. This is a common problem across many services. Give me a simple way to submit feedback. For example, Alaska Air asks me for the flight number, but my feedback has nothing to do with a flight!
In order to make Kagi the default search engine, I need to jump through hoops. That's a one time issue, but tells me that Kagi will never get greater adoption because of this friction.
I tried searching for "appl" or any other stock symbol and I get a wall of text. I just want a widget with today's result. I tried searching in Kagi on how to accomplish that but too complicated.
Since it is a subscription, how can I juggle work related searching and private searches?
Bonus. Typing this out is terrible as every second or third keystrokes the interface lags as much as a second. I'm on an M4!

Cheers, but for now I will be sticking with DuckDuckGo.

See above.

Please select one or more tags. For fucks sakes!

Hey Paul. Sounds frustrating but hopefully I can add some context.

You just submitted feedback correctly! I understand it another step to signup but this isn't a big corp that will drop your comments into a black hole and hopefully a remote team will sort it out. You have a whole community that will chime in.
Yes another one time step. Kagi is a paid service and I don't think anyone expects to see paid offerings as default in these browsers. As a side, offering this in browsers would hammer Kagi's performance from 'free' clients. Not a great cost performance balance imho.
I see your issue. Just typed in APPL, it worked, typed in USAR -- it did not. What WORKS is adding 'stock' to the end of query' ie 'AAPL stock', 'USAR stock', 'SLS stock'. try that.
Up to you. I heard users use two accounts.
Not on a M4 or anywhere close and unable to reproduce. Client side workload where I would point to have a look.
Good Luck.. hopefully things will smooth out..

If it's tagged wrong then a moderator will fix it. Bug = obviously broken and unintended.
If you have a mac and iPhone then you can install Kagi's own browser, Orion, which will make it easier.
Try "aapl". A new stock widget was just launched and it seems it's not always showing. Give it a couple of days.
If you have Professional or Ultimate the searches are unlimited. Nothing is saved - there's no shared search history. As long as it's not a shared computer it should be safe to use at work.
