tl;dr: Kagi's latest changelog adds a setting to automatically remove paywalled links from search results, alongside a revamped Stocks widget that now supports ETFs and price charts with animated time-window transitions. The Kagi Assistant also gets upgrades including Markdown/LaTeX rendering in user messages, cross-thread search with folder filtering, and configurable retention periods (24h, 7d, or 30d) for temporary threads.
HN Discussion:
  • Enthusiastic Kagi users praising the service and its Assistant feature
  • Feature makes sense since users won't subscribe to random paywalled articles they find via search
  • Concerned this will surface only low-quality AI clickbait instead of real journalism
  • Prefer to see all results including paywalled ones to find best quality information
  • ~Suggests alternative solutions like archive link swapping or micropayment wallets for articles
