They are giving extra when you factor in the donations. The old pricing was losing money.

The top poster doesn't seem to think the price should even cover kagi's costs, which is absurd.

They have every right to cover their costs but I don't appreciate the bait and switch. It seems like a desperation move since I don't see how they can sustain and grow their user base at these price points.

No, they definitely should cover their costs. They're a business.

But, the cost they're charging is too much. I don't care how much it costs you to perform a search, I care how much it costs me.
