Kai's verdictS-tier for search. I use it before Google now. If you're still Googling everything, try this for a week.A-tier. If you already love Duolingo, worth it. If starting fresh, try ChatGPT Voice instead.A-tier for designer-led sites. S-tier if animations matter.A-tier. The right answer if you want open-source + terminal-native + model-agnostic.
