Reading some of these comments, I wonder how much astroturfing goes on HN these days
- RockingGoodNite 4y agoI was thinking every response is almost incredulously high. Also makes me wonder about the source of all the anti-self-host email posts.
- b0afc375b5 4y agoThere's a specific comment here that is especially suspicious to me, but I didn't want to pry.
- Karunamon 4y agoThe source of those posts are likely people who got burned trying.
- rosywoozlechan 4y agoidk I'm a legit happy customer :\
- mongrol-smush 4y agoI understand why you might be sceptical but your comment has motivated me to decloak and respond. Fastmail really do provide an excellent product. Like many of the other commentators I moved over to them from Gmail and am very glad I did so. Sometimes things truly are as good as they seem.
- math-dev 4y agoYes it’s good to maintain a healthy dose of skepticism and I could (more than likely) be equally wrong, but I hope my comment encouraged others not to take comments online at face value always. For what it’s worth, I signed up to fast mail yesterday, onboarding vs my cloudflare managed domain was a breeze and so far no issues (it’s email hosting (and their iOS app isn’t great), so there’s not much to get excited about on a day to day basis - apart from a long term appreciation of privacy first email). I have just started using the Spark Mail App - now that I am excited about…if it lives up to its hype, it will be a great addition to my workflow.
