So #Kagi is now partnering with #Brave, i.e. the company of Brendan Eich, who has been CEO at Mozilla for eleven days before he had to leave due to massive criticism of his homophobic views. Brave's most well-known product is a browser with its own cryptocurrency, co-designed by Eich.
A feedback post asking Kagi to reconsider has been closed by Kagi's founder Vladimir Prelovac because "Considering company x founder political views is not a factor in [their] evaluation".

Quite a controversial decision… I love Kagi though, but I don’t understand why they would want to drag Brave into this.
I doubt Kagi actually spent money for guerilla marketing. I myself often recommend Kagi on Lemmy before this because it’s actually good (and I certainly didn’t get paid). Now I’m going wait and see how it develop before deciding if I’ll recommend it to others again.
