    Fastmail is pretty snappy for me. Why else would I want to switch to Superhuman besides a snappy experience? Also I mostly use mail via IMAP using the iOS mail app, in which case t…

    The war on drugs doesn’t work. the government should not have the authority to interfere with what people put inside their body. Stop blaming drug addiction on everybody but the dr…
