This sort of centralized, hand-curated list makes me nervous. The beauty of the web is that it’s open, you don’t have to “apply” or meet “criteria” for your website to viewable by other people. Obviously the status-quo (of Google Search) isn’t great, and I’m glad Kagi is trying to fix this problem. But this isn’t going to scale.
I can't see how it will scale, but in the immediate present, it seems useful and good to me. I might even prefer if this small web remained small (though that's likely... unappealing to Kagi's investors).
