    I don’t use Kagi. Frankly, I hadn’t heard of them before this, but I’m not sure what classifies this as unhinged narcissism. I don’t know if there’s more to see but what I saw was an email trying to address concerns with the product.

    No “apologist” stuff here, I’m just not sure why this would be classified as unhinged narcissism. Can someone explain? Genuinely would like to know.

      The main reason is that the CEO continues to respond after 2 requests to stop the conversation, it would’ve been more appropriate after the request to just simply make a blog post or something addressing the points made on the blog post itself without naming the author, that way they’re talking to their community about community concerns.

      Repeated responses via direct message after being asked to stop 2+ times is harassment. The initial reach out itself was perfectly fine and expected, but respecting when someone doesn’t want to engage in the conversation directly, and reaching out to the community in its entirety about the concerns is what should’ve been done by the CEO here for this to have ended in a better way for everyone.

      oh hey, you’re also an apologist for the bigot Brendan Eich so thanks for making it easy to determine that this stupid bullshit is a pattern for you
