As long as Spotlight doesn't have a dedicated gesture, it's not as good. Now I need to move the pointer to that tiny icon and click it. Dashboard is a simple four-finger swipe left.
Got a tip for us?

Cmd-space
Swipe left from right edge
This sucks, but I guess cmd-space s-t will do the trick.

No you don't. Cmd-space.
This is one of my most used shortcuts on my Mac.
Yes it does. To open Spotlight to start a search:
Command-Space bar

Looks like a Mojave feature, then. Good to know some of the workflow can be carried over. I’ll still miss having the currency converter there at a glance, though.
I use Spotlight for these. I prefer currency and unit conversion in Spotlight because you can type it all out without having to mouse and click as much as you do in Dashboard.
For Dictionary you type the word.
For currency type: 10 usd to euro
For conversion type: 10 meter to feet
And Calculator you type the math you want: 9*6
