Kagi. Just use Kagi. It is by far far far the best. Best money I spend, aside from Fastmail. https://kagi.com/ https://kagi.com/

- skipnup 5mo agoAnyone here who uses kagi in a language other than English? Specifically German? Is it any good?
- herrherrmann 5mo agoWorks well for me! Have been using Kagi for well over a year now. (I assume you’re talking about the German search results, not their German UI.)
- fender256 5mo agoGerman works great on Kagi, no problems at all.
- xstas1 5mo agoKagi is good, but only for English language queries
- Shank 5mo agoI find it great for Japanese, provided you search in the Japanese language mode.
- xstas1 5mo agoHow do you set it to search in Japanese language mode?
- robin_reala 5mo agoSecond filter from the left on the results page is the location / language filter.
- nicce 5mo agoI use it for Finnish all the time and it is comparable to Google I would say.
- PartiallyTyped 5mo agoHonestly, same. I don't even think about it, I just and only use kagi.
- haltcatchfire 5mo agoWhat's your monthly usage, aprox.? Do you use Kagi for getting to pages you know of but doesn't want to type the whole URL for, eg. typing "Hacker news" in the URL bar instead of "news.ycombinator.com"?
- malfist 5mo agoI average 800-1000 searches per month and I don't generally search for places I know the URL for (usually only when I can't spell it)
- ranger_danger 5mo agoSeems to require an account... no thanks
- scratchyone 5mo agoAs someone who also loves Kagi, what do you like so much about Fastmail? Seeing it compared to Kagi makes me want to give it a try as well haha.
- coffeefirst 5mo agoI think the comparison is that they just seem to give a shit about putting out a very good product. Filter and snooze automatically is probably my favorite unique capability but it’s less one thing than the overall ethos and execution. Also, real support! Your email is important, you should be able to open a ticket and reach someone that knows what they’re doing.
- plqbfbv 5mo agoJust like parent poster, there's a few things I pay for, and those are Kagi and Fastmail :) Fastmail is... FAST. The page refresh is basically instant, and the UI is super-snappy, well refined and something like 2026, while Gmail hasn't changed in... 15 years? It supports a lot of features (identities, masked addresses, ...), not to mention that I can have my domains properly hosted on it, for 5eur/mo.
- scratchyone 5mo agothank you lol, this has convinced me to switch over to fastmail
- acdha 5mo agoFastmail is like Gmail used to be: fast, good search, functional spam filter. I have my own domain so switching took a couple of minutes and over the next week I realized that I never once regretted it – I saw less spam and I was surprised by how much stuff like infrequent newsletters I’d missed because Gmail was filtering it incorrectly while letting through tons of marketing junk.
