Are you happy with deliverability? I have had some Fastmail issues where mails did not get delivered as reliable as with Gmail … filters are also much less convenient to set up.
On the other hand, Fastmail is great as an IMAP provider.
The web GUI etc. are OK but there are still issues, for example with non-English characters in the search. 2FA is kind of strange too with its mix between your password and the 2FA token. And spam filtering is of course not comparable with Gmail in my experience (with Fastmail erring on the spam side and Gmail erring on the false positive side, I don't know which one is 'preferable'!).
