My memory is fuzzy on what I used way back in the day like this. One was a meta-search engine across general engines (eg Google) and specialized engines. It had boolean operators to let me drill into the search. I think it was Turbosearch.
Regardless, I wanted features like that on top of Google, Bing, etc. It could be free and ad supported with a user focus like DuckDuckGo.
Also, a Kagi vs DuckDuckGo comparison might be more fair than Kagi vs Google since DDG is still serving the users despite being ad driven.
