"textContent": "Fair enough, @DanielM . We originally only had a Kagi vs Uruky and Google vs Uruky comparison, to inform people on the differences. The others were added because we were getting emails of people asking us for the differences.\n\nUsing “vs” can seem adversarial, but it’s a common search pattern we need to consider (people can’t find or understand Uruky in a vaccum). Note we don’t do the usual “blog posts” or social media for SEO and discoverability, for example. That was a line we drew, though people keep asking us to build a blog to talk about the features we build more deeply. We want to build a great search product that gives people choice and protects their privacy as much as possible; not manage media or blog posts and whims of other search engines to show/disappear on them.\n\nThe testimonials were also another thing people kept asking us for, because Uruky is very new and small; they wanted some kind of proof that others had tried and used it. We can say we have over 200 monthly active accounts, but there’s no way to verify that, so the testimonials seemed like a great way to give some proof. We also haven’t paid for those, and when cold-emailing journalists or bloggers about Uruky, we always ask them to tell us about what they find great and lacking, not write about it publicly, unless they want.\n\nAnyway, I’m curious, given your restrictions, what tools do you recommend, because I don’t know any that don’t have comparisons or testimonials?\n\nThanks.",
