Kagi shill here. Are they finally applying filters and operands to image searches?

Asking because it was a tough year seeing Pinterest as top filter choice and top result in images (when set as filter=block).

(edit: I just tried searching->image: beautiful quilt patterns. I didn't spot any Pinterest results!)

I have never understood why DDG, etc steadfastly refuse to obey operands in image searches. Most days. Every blue moon operands seem to work. I think.

sidebar: Yesterday I saw Yandex obey quotes in a web search. It was the 1st time I've seen that.

That was a bug, apologies. It should be fixed now.


I sincerely appreciate the diligence. I really did see Pinterest results over a longish span. I may well have only noted their presence and not their absence - skewing my perspective.

Overall, my experience is very positive. I'm on many PCs throughout the day and I miss Kagi when it isn't there.


Pinterest serves pages in many domains (different TLDs). It is better to use a regex to block them.


I would if Kagi could. I blocked them all manually.


Kagi doesn't provide it natively because of performance issues. They contributed to ublacklist to add kagi search. You can use it with regex and matching rules

> If you need advanced blocking features, such as specifying rules by match patterns (e.g., ://.example.com/*) or by regular expressions (e.g., /example\.(net|org)/), the uBlacklist browser extension includes support for Kagi Search.

That's interesting. I'll dig it up. Thank you.
