Google says deleting old pages to bamboozle Search is "not a thing!" as CNET erases its history. The tech news site removed thousands of old articles in a recent bid to appease Google and improve its performance in search results over the past few months.

      Thanks! Replying so I remember to check them out tomorrow, but I’ll probably eventually relent and get unlimited too. With how much I apparently use it, probably worth it in the end 😅

        If you aren’t already using bangs that can help to keep the number of Kagi searches down. It doesn’t count towards your search count.

        So for example I setup some custom bangs, and you can make it so you don’t even need to type the “!”. Like the letter L will take me to the first result in DDG feeling lucky. I could type “l verizon” and it goes directly to Verizon’s website without using a search.

        I also did that with a bunch of other sites, so I can search Wikipedia with w, imdb with imd, wolfram alpha with wa, etc.
