    I’ve done 418 searches today and it’s still noon. That’s ~1254 a month. Even if my searches went down by 90% I’d still be 4.18 times over.

    … Kagi was something I tried and immediately fell in love with. It just works.

    Does it also work with very specific technical searches? Could it for example search for the behavior of atol when it encounters an alphabetical character? Neither Google, Bing nor DuckDuckGo provide me with an answer. Google doesn’t even show cppreference in the top 5.

      Sorry I’m having trouble understanding what you’re asking for. You’ve done 418 searches in a single day? That would be 12958 a month so I’m not sure I’m reading your comment correctly.

      Does it also work with very specific technical searches?

      That’s pretty much exactly what I use it for.

      Could it for example search for the behavior of when it encounters an alphabetical character?

      I’m not sure what you’re asking here.

        My comment wasn’t that clear. 1254 is with a 90% reduction and the example question about atol’s behavior was just an example. I looked it up earlier that day but was unable to find it using Google.

        atol is a C/C++ function that takes in a char pointer and returns a long. I was trying to figure out if it would gracefully stop when it encountered non-numeric characters, if it would skip them or if it would cause undefined behavior.
