How is it possible that a search for "Hacker News" produces only 65 results? There are thousands of pages out there with that exact phrase on it (including many sub-pages of this site).
The first result is almost assuredly the right one, but either they're ruling out a lot of pages as not-what-you-meant, or their index is really small.
It's another feature of Kagi. They know they have thousands of results, but they provide you a single page of most relevant results. If you want to see more because you exhausted the page, there's a "more results" button at the bottom.
Kagi reduces mental load by default, and this is a good thing.
That's an interesting positive spin on what is clearly a cost-cutting feature. I'm on the unlimited search tier, so it hasn't really been a big deal, but it's worth noting that clicking the "more results" button charges your account for an additional search too. Or at least it used to.
