Lightyears ahead, but are the alternatives good enough? I switched from using Gmail as the common landing spot for all of my email to Fastmail who in some ways is nowhere close to Gmail but in others are way ahead of Google. But above all else I know Fastmail isn’t running datamining programs on my email and contacts list to create and sell a marketing profile about me, and that is worth more to me than I’m paying them for email service.
