As I said in my original comment, I think it makes perfect sense to replace an itemised list - which needs to be constantly updated - with a generic “all major search engines” which covers everything.

If Yandex being removed isn’t an issue, then I’m not sure what could be termed as Proton being cagey.

For me, from a privacy perspective as a user it’s largely irrelevant what third-parties they use on the backend as long as my searches stay private.

Adding the statistics for third parties to their stats page would be neat from the user perspective, but I can’t imagine what value there would be in publishing that information from Kagi’s perspective.

The topic is “using Yandex”. What’s the issue with that? I wasn’t asking what is the issue with changing the wording on some random page 🤦

What’s the issue with this? API calls to other search engines are anonymised, and naturally I want Kagi to search as many sources as possible.

So what’s the issue?

You don’t need Wayback machine to find their old page, it’s all open on Github: https://github.com/kagisearch/kagi-docs/commit/6baff1c066db9b3d804653ea19bc9d1c076a710b

I don’t see any “conspiracy” removing an itemised list - it’s just something which is a pain to keep up-to-date over time. Better to say “all major search engines worldwide”, which is what they’re now saying.

Again, I don’t really see any issue here…
