They use a lot of sources to get the best results: their index, and then others. I doubt much goes to Yandex but they don’t specify.

Yes they use Yandex along with the others.
Personally I don't use them.
They also pay Brave for their results

yandex is about 2% of our total cost, to put things into perspective
I encourage subscribers to check out this thread and weigh in.
Even if there was any truth to this, a good search engine remains unimpressed by world politics.
They pull from several other search indexes, and they have awesome features. Infinitely more valuable than an overpriced coffee for $5/month.
I love the quick summarizer.
Yandex is actually a better search engine than google (& all this BS about Russian bias is lies) Use it & judge it yourselves, don't take my word for it (not that my word has any value😅)
I only use Kagi when I can't find something on other search engines. It often delivers where others can't. But so far the free 100 searches have lasted me 3 months and I think will likely last me years at the rate I'm using them.
