I literally looked at Kagi like a week or two ago from a link here. I really liked it, and I've really been hating Google search more and more each day. But I concluded that 1000 searches felt too limiting, and $25 felt too expensive, so I passed hoping a price change would come at some point in the future.
And voila! Just signed up for $10 unlimited. Probably won't even use 1000/month, but psychologically it just feels so much better.
