You probably have an adblocker running. I also did this test with ‘Canada eta’ and got the expected result on top. But when I reloaded the page without my content blockers, the official Canadian website was more than 1.5 iPad screen scrolls down.

Yeah, of course. Anyone with a brain does. But "Kagi doesn't have ads" is a different statement than "Kagi's results are better than Google's." I've never seen anyone actually give a search term that Kagi does better at.


Isn’t a lack of adverts a prime reasons ‘Kagi’s results are better than Google’s’? I hear the odd person say that they like the adverts but it’s hard to believe that’s a plus for the bulk of users.


As mentioned, an ad blocker fixes that, too. Ads aside, the actual search results don't seem to be any different.


Block lists remove a lot of crap and pinned sources add things I want.

You may tried Kagi, but after a week or so of Kagi it was awful going back to Google (plus a blocker).
