Anyone tried hey.com? Thoughts?

Terrible. Hated every minute of it. Too opinionated in all the wrong ways, and not at all ready for work related use cases.

I’ve used it daily since it launched and can’t recommend enough. The workflow is extremely freeing and quickly reduces the amount of email you have to sift through, especially if you’re one to sign up for lots of random crap. Only downside is that search is meh on a good day

I paid the first month and then unsubscribed. Not worth it. Imho it really depends on the amount of email you cope with everyday. I found that hey is not an improvement over my gmail + mail standard setup.

I like it for personal email, wouldn’t use it for work. Newsletter reader function is nice, and I like the “collections” feature that lets me bundle threads together by topic and view as one timeline.

I use for 1y+. I like keyboard shortcuts and screening function + a couple small features (bubble up, for later). Negatives: sometimes it's slow, search could be better (filters).

I have used it since launch and really like it. It’s opinionated but works for me. Main downside: iOS/Android apps are web based and can be pretty slow.

I’ve been a user since launch! Pros: blocks it all that should be blocked, screening is a time saver, good shortcuts, feels somewhat like superhuman but cheaper. Also added built-in kanban recently, could help work, my use-case is personal. Cons: can be slow, folders usability is shit, search is subpar, no U2F yet

I tried it at launch for a year. How they rolled out support for custom domains was arguably poorly done with respect to pricing and messaging so I didn’t renew and use Fastmail for my domain names
