The difference with Kagi is it lets me completely block Quora from my search results. Quora has been garbage for years, even before they started using AI answers.

Yep, just this week I saw a Quora result in Kagi. Clicked it and remembered how useless the website was. My CPU gave an audible scream from inside its aluminum case from the spike in client-side tracking and JS the website has. Firefox noticeably slowed.

So I backed out back to Kagi and told it to never subject my eyes or my computer's safety through the experience ever again.

Can also be done through content filtering extensions (e.g. ublock origin [1])
