Comment above address a part of the question https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38475154

Second part of the answer to your question is that you can not humanize the web (our stated mission) with just Search. The window to the web is the browser. It is the most important software we have on our computers and yet we are as a civilization somehow Ok with the fact that most mainstream browsers through which we inform and educate are directly or indirectly in the service of advertising companies (!).

If that is not dystopia, I am not sure what is. And that is what we are up against, even if the odds are against us.

Orion is the first browser in 20 years that you can pay for and own. Owning your browser is a thing again thanks to Orion!

It is also a great customer acqusition channel for Kagi, as we do not do advertising and many Kagi members told us this is how they found about the Search product.

Yes it is hard. Yes Orion only exists on Mac, because you have to start somewhere and we are a small team. But we will get there.
