So #Kagi is now partnering with #Brave, i.e. the company of Brendan Eich, who has been CEO at Mozilla for eleven days before he had to leave due to massive criticism of his homophobic views. Brave's most well-known product is a browser with its own cryptocurrency, co-designed by Eich.
A feedback post asking Kagi to reconsider has been closed by Kagi's founder Vladimir Prelovac because "Considering company x founder political views is not a factor in [their] evaluation".

Quite a controversial decision… I love Kagi though, but I don’t understand why they would want to drag Brave into this.
Firstly, fuck off with this misrepresentation. I can’t be bothered with tedious whataboutism pushed purely to simp for a homophobic millionaire who actively wants people like me to be second class citizens.
He spent money to actively oppose LGBT people having equal rights. That’s very different to merely not publicly supporting it in order to avoid backlash from the very people he had to win over to be elected.
One of those is spineless or, charitably, savvy politicking. The other is outright hateful.
And for the record, I’m not American. I couldn’t give a shit about Obama. So if this is some kind of “um ackshully you supported Obama, owned much??” doesn’t apply to me. Not that it was even a good argument anyway.
He hasn’t come out and said that he was wrong or tried to make up for it in any way. He has in fact doubled down on his stance.

Didn’t know he doubled down on it. When did he do that?
