Does Fastmail have good deliverability between it and Gmail/Outlook or other popular email providers? I always think about switching but I always worry I will run into a situation where my emails are just getting dropped.

I've been using fastmail for a few years and have had no deliverability issues. Previously I was hosting my own mail and decided to switch because of deliverability. And before that, I was using gmail.
I really like fastmail and recommend it.

I recently moved to fastmail and it was a great experience.
I like how they have wizard type things to help you setup your DNS records for SPF and DKIM - I know how to figure it out, but its nice to just cut and paste.
They also support 2FA for the admin account, and you can make a bunch of dedicated logins for each app which you can disable easily if a device is lost or compromised.

Not to add the amazing iOS setup experience. It was surprising to say the least.
Edit: been using it for 5-6 years now. Got three 3yr plan. It has been awesome and I can configure my own deliverability settings or leave it up to fastmail. I have it so that other services will send me failure reports but I haven't had issues at all.
