I've been using Fastmail for well over a decade (first signed up as xxx@fastmail.fm). I use the web interface for the very simple reason that it's just as good as any desktop app I've used and it's available without installation on whatever machine I'm on - even across Windows, MacOS, and Linux. It's not sexy at all, but it does what it's supposed to do consistently and without slowing me down. IMO there should be something to justify installing an app, and there just isn't in this case.
I do use the Android app, though. It has exactly the same "not sexy but works" feel for a platform where making a decent web app is even harder.
- lillecarl 4y agoI use fastmail because of their webui. Though I'm considering moving to O365 EO1 since their contact sync is first party, I want to get rid of Google. I'd have to front it with something like "forwardemail" for catch-all though, but it'd still be cheaper per month. And O365 is quite nice, used to work with it. @fastmail team: please make contact sync a thing in your app, I don't want to use $megacorp, but nothing else does it well (davx doesn't cut it)
- holigot 4y agoHey. What do you mean? Fastmail does have a decent contact sync. In my opinion better than O365.
- lillecarl 4y agoMy FM client (android) doesn't appear as a place to put contacts. https://ibb.co/NTwM9Jm https://ibb.co/NTwM9Jm I might be holding it wrong, but it's my only issue with FM as it is right now!
