Back to Kagi
The percentage of quality content on the web has still gone down but it still exists. I usually use Marginalia Search (https://marginalia-search.com/) when I'm researching something and not finding any good results on Kagi or Google.

Xonaly – Canada's Independent Search Engine
The search engine does indeed seem to be fully custom - the results for niche topics are quite bad, but that at least means it's not a Bing frontend. Although I wonder why the authors decided to go 100% custom instead of (partially?) reusing https://github.com/MarginaliaSearch/MarginaliaSearch for some of the core engine.
On an unrelated note: I wonder, do some people think that LLM-written text is better than normal human text? Looking at https://xonaly.com/how-it-works it's obvious that the page text is LLM-written, but I genuinely don't understand why. There's not much text there, and seeing LLM-written text on one of the main pages of a project instantly makes me very skeptical of it.
Don't get me wrong, I use LLMs myself quite a lot, but I try to always interact with others through my own words. In rare cases where I need to paste an output from an LLM (like, some research/security report), I always leave a note about it being AI-written.

Google Search as you know it is over
I've used Kagi for a few years but it's gotten significantly worse for me the last year or so. I'm curious if anyone else has seen the same thing happen. I'll search for something and usually see a bunch of barely relevant SEO sites. Avoiding this is why I started paying for Kagi in the first place, so it's been disappointing to see. Marginalia Search (https://marginalia-search.com/) seems to be better at finding content written by humans rather than SEO specialists, but it's not a silver bullet (for example, the last time I checked they didn't index non-English sites).

The Indie Internet Index – submit your favorite sites
Am I missing something? This doesn't seem to be an "index" at all. The name "index" made me think its trying to accomplish what marginalia is already doing
https://marginalia-search.com/
And stuff like Gossip's Web has been around for a decade now
https://gossipsweb.net/
IndieWeb also has a massive "web ring" that has a similar aim
