Literally every person in this subthread who said something positive about Kagi is very clearly just a normal user who has recently posted things completely unrelated to it, judging by their history.

Yes, this is exactly how it works. This behavior is well documented.

Not saying 100% all these users are astroturfing accounts, but I'm just pointing out this looks like it

It's tough, because people also like to recommend things they like. If a friend in real life told you about the new CastX® Iron Extreme™ cast iron skillet that they got and how they love its rich iron flavor, you would just think they just like their new pan.
