I think every FastMail proponent is single, as they are always touting how you get the same thing as running your own email server for $5/mo. But for people with a family it is rather expensive for email.
- kiwijamo 9y agoI'm the opposite. When it was just me I didn't mind running my own mail server and putting up with my self-inflicted downtimes. But when I started adding family members it added more pressure on me to ensure good uptimes etc. So for me, family members were the reason why I migrated to FastMail. I don't see it as being very costly for the quality of service they provide but YMMV.
- eikenberry 9y agoThis hasn't been an issue for me once I moved my mail server into a VPS (ran it from home for a long time). Been running in a VPS now for 10+ years and downtime has never been an issue. The main pain points have been clean IPs and migrating user accounts when I upgrade the server.
