Their UI is definitely faster but I do prefer the gmail UI, for example how new messages are displayed in threads is quite useless in fastmail.

I have heard from three Tesla owners how uncomfortable they find the seats during very long drives, so not everyone "loves" it. Perhaps if you don't drive long distances in it, your experience will not reveal this.

It’s not that niche at all if you have a cross platform app or you have a big part of your app that has to interface with metal kernel code, which is C++. There are a lot of reasons why you would want that code accessible from swift as well

That’s a fine analysis, but most people have a more generally accepted definition of what low-level means in a context of modern systems programming languages. I suppose you have provided an alternate definition, but it’s not really in the

OK, so it sounds like you are confirming an answer to my question, that Go, a language with garbage collection and a compiler (at least its most popular one) that does only an average job at optimizing machine code, is now considered low le
