And did you find you got much spam to non-existent addresses? I used to use a catch-all setup, and got a large amount of spam, but that must have been 25ish years ago.

Very little.

Could also be that Fastmail has good filtering.

Thanks. I find Fastmail a little worse than Google in terms of spam, but that could just be fluctuations in the amount of spam in general after changing service. (I'm noticing more spam in my work email recently, which uses Google Workspace, too).
