I'm back using firefox full time since about 3 months and don't notice that at all. In fact I now struggle to remember why I ever moved to chrome in the first place, I know there were reasons but I can't remember what they were. Moving back was surprisingly painless. If I could find a similarly easy and good path out of gmail I'd be gone tomorrow.
- kiwijamo 7y agoI recommend FastMail if you're willing to pay for your email services. They have an excellent import tool to help with migrating your email from Gmail.
- RexM 7y agoI 2nd the Fastmail recommendation.
- kevinkeller 7y agoThere was some talk of privacy concerns with FastMail, due to Australian laws: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19242698 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19242698 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18654434 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18654434 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_surveillance_in_Australia#Assistance_and_Access_Bill https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_surveillance_in_Australia...
- RandomBacon 7y agoWent it comes to governments spying on people, I weigh Fastmail the same as Gmail. Considering I find everything else about Fastmail better than Gmail, I am slowly making the switch (using my own domain names though so I could potentially switch again in the future).
- newscracker 7y agoTake a look at the following before you decide on Fastmail. Posteo.de Mailbox.org Runbox.com Mailfence.com Migadu.com If you don’t mind having to use apps for email, take a look at Tutanota and ProtonMail (the former doesn’t support IMAP by any means, and the latter needs additional software).
