Ask HN: Those who left Gmail behind, how do you live without bundling?
I switched from Gmail to FastMail last year and loved it, but fell way behind on my email. I've realized that the way Gmail separates promotional, social, updates, and forums has a _huge_ impact on my ability to stay on top of my inbox. I'm really surprised it doesn't come up more often when discussing FastMail/ProtonMail etc. Am I missing something? How do you live without that feature? Do I just get more email than most, or is there some other workflow I don't know about?
- Artemix 8y agoI'm also a user of FastMail, and the thing is, I always struggled with this gmail "feature". I want to be able to organise my emails as I want, and FastMail gives me exactly that. I use a different username for each and every service, while keeping my domain as same, so I receive all emails to this domain and sort them as I want.
- timwis 8y agoSo do you just have a ton of inbox rules/filters set up?
