Ask HN: Is Kagi Search Down?
For about 30 minutes now, all Kagi search requests appear to return a blank screen. It also seems to take longer for the request to resolve.
Their status page[1] shows no issues, and their unauthenticated home page also appears to be fine.
- aftergibson 3y agoYes as far I can tell it's down.
- hosteur 3y agoIt is down for me. It seems you meant to include a reference to their status page. However, the link was not included. Anyone know the link to their status page?
- 4lun 3y agohttps://status.kagi.com/ https://status.kagi.com/ - Currently shows "No issues detected" (but down for me also)
- Doctor_Fegg 3y agoDown for me as well.
- KomoD 3y agoWhy even have a status page if it's not updated... I'd at least expect some kind of automated health check failing and updating the page.
- hosteur 3y agoIt seems to be back up now.
- KomoD 3y agoNot fully, some pages still return 500
- mcilie 3y agoDown for me as well!
- lotusw0w 3y agoIt is down for me at the moment (HTTP 500)
- freediver 3y agoVlad from Kagi here. We did indeed have an infra glitch, that should be resolved by now. Sorry for the interruption. The status page was indeed useless as it needs to be manually updated with the incident, and we prioritised fixing the issues vs doing this. This obviously needs to change. Any statuspage services that do a decent job at this?
- kuon 3y agoFully down from switzerland on ipv6 and ipv4, but only for my tabs that are logged in, from private tabs I get the login screen. For status page, host a simple server somewhere that is not managed by your infra that just do a curl request (or whatever script you see fit, just make it self contained). Have another domain pointing to it. This can help: https://github.com/ivbeg/awesome-status-pages https://github.com/ivbeg/awesome-status-pages
- olao99 3y agoI'm getting 502 errors right now
- jcul 3y agoSeems fine for me now. Was getting a 500 after about 5 seconds for a while. However, some of the regions from https://status.kagi.com/ https://status.kagi.com/ did work for me, while kagi.com and the Europe regions did not. I thought it was just me as the status page did not update, these things happen but would be better if the status page was more responsive.
- crabsand 3y agoIt's still down for me (Bursa / Turkey)
- hackernews1134 3y agoGah! I don't want to change my default search engine on all my machines temporarily and then have to change them back once the outage is resolved. Because I know that due to inertia, I won't do it until Google results start bothering me again (that won't be long - hah!). I type searches in my URL bar across multiple machine and mobile devices dozens of times an hour during "heads down" times. May I suggest (if browser extension apis allow this) for the extension to fall back to google (or whatever was configured before kagi) if a response from Kagi is not received in some timeout seconds.
- ajdude 3y agoI wonder if this has to do with all of the other outages today.
- Fauntleroy 3y agoDown for me in the US West. This really can't happen. Search is essentially a part of the web browser itself.
- tramav 3y agoyeah it's down and I get a 500 error
