For 10 euro you can get Netflix, Spotify. My Ring security subscription is also a tenner. Pretty much everything that has a subscription model targets 10 euro as a minimum. I don't really know why, all these tenners add up a lot. I'm even dropping Spotify now some months (especially because when I drop it, the next month they offer me 3 months for a tenner to come back, which I find a lot more reasonable as I don't use it much).
Kagi does really sound like it is easier to provide and should not cost as much. It feels like they are expecting super-heavy users. Their 50 free searches a month is not enough for me but I could probably do with 100 or 200. But there is no intermediate subscription, it's just 50 free or unlimited for a tenner.
- calculated 4y agoI read that they calculate the subscription price based on average searches per user and something else. I see the main problem which occurs here is that they're not large scale enough hence the unoptimized subscription cost. > They are expecting suepr heavy users. They probably should be as most of thier users would be tech savy which by itself means a lot of searching so probably pricing is right according to the maintenance costs.
