I've been using Kagi for a while now(maybe 2-3 months iirc), and it's been a great experience. I've hopped between 4[0] search engines in the past year, and I've finally found one that works really well, is private, and does what I need it to do. My thanks to the Kagi team for delivering a great experience, I've enabled my premium account. 100% worth it for me.
I've found that `brew` itself is quite slow. I think the problemis just with how brew does it's package management. I'm not going to complain about it, because it's (IMO) better than MacPorts.
