Ask HN: What’s Next?

Posted by swansonator on Saturday February 12, 2022 @02:00AM
from the ask-hn dept.

Appreciate any feedback from fellow HN folks.Have been a web developer/engineer for 10-15 years now. Have a great stable job, but not 100% loving the work.Recently switched jobs and increased my pay over 100%, but it’s really not about the money. While it’s amazing that companies are paying this, not sure if this ticket type of work is for me. I would say I’m loyal and prefer working on one...

Fastmail is excellent. A bit cheaper than the new Google Workspace and less invasive. It supports multiple domains easily. Interface is great and the iOS app is just as great. I'm sure the Android version is good too.

From my past experience with AWS SES, it requires a bit more development to handle bounces, spam, etc. Perhaps at $previousjob, we did not have the resources to handle this development time.

Personally, I prefer Postmark. Their onboarding, support, and pricing is excellent. The interface is good and decent integrations.
