Think i'll finally give Kagi a try - also thinking about moving to Fastmail or similar.
The results are so ridiculous now i've actively begun hating them, that coupled with a short stint using Google Ads a few years ago and i'm convinced Google is a very, very shady company that i can't wait to ditch fully.
Docs wise i've begun to look up on GPT-4 a lot though instead of stack, official sites etc. so i'm already using search less in general.
- graynk 2y agoBeen using Fastmail for several years now, and Kagi for several months. Can heartily recommend both
- dhc02 3y agoI switched to fastmail from gmail a few months ago and I'm incredibly happy with it. I even got to keep my *@mydomain wildcard addresses, and the fastmail calendar implementation is not half bad.
- joshstrange 3y agoQuick question: Were you using Google apps for your domain (or whatever it’s called now)? And if, were you able to maintain access to your Google docs and other Google-based services (play, etc)?
- dhc02 2y agoI was not. I switched from an @gmail.com address. However, I think the real answer to your question is that your email address is your ID for Google services, whether its MX records point to Google or not.
- omoikane 3y agoI was on Fastmail until Opera bought them. Looks like they have since bought back their company, but there wasn't a compelling reason for me to go back.
- laurentlbm 3y agoI don't get the point of your comment. They were only owned by Opera from 2010 to 2013, that's more than 10 years ago.
- troyvit 3y agoThe big surprise for me re: fastmail is how much better their UI and UX are. I was prepared to pay money to sacrifice usability to avoid gmail and have been happily surprised.
