Interesting, my Kagi results gave W3Schools, geeks for geeks, and postgresqltutorial.com before the official docs, but hey still way better than OP's results!
Kagi has search personalization where you can lower/raise/pin specific domains (one of kagis main selling points) and I blocked geeks for geeks and w3schools, as these are irrelevant for me and I don't want them in my results
can't you do that on a self-hosted searxng? I know you can do that with YaCY, but YaCY search results kinda suck
I don't think that's possible with searxng (but I'm not 100% sure, but I can't seem to find that feature)
I know there are browser extensions which can filter out domains in search results for different search engines like google and duckduckgo.
But the pinning/lowering/raising is a bit trickier to implement as an extension, because what kagi does is basically:
It would be possible but not as "streamlined" as Kagi does.
Don't get me wrong, Kagi definitely has its rough edges and the search ranking algorithm is sometimes very unpredictable, but it provides good enough results for me to be worth the 10$ per month for unlimited searches.
