Thank you!! I’ll try out a monthlong subscription.

My experience with Pangram so far in Substack is nothing short of phenomenal.

I contribute to Storyteller in my free time and I absolutely love using my Boox with it, honestly my dream reading setup.

fully self hosted without any external dependencies is incredibly impressive, amazing work

Thank you. Took a long... long time to get it to even this stage, and there's so much more left to do.

ooh, this seems super cool. i see that he doesn't print jackets, have you gotten them printed elsewhere for that?

yeah, I glued the jacket together - but no, I didn't get it printed professionally. that's a great thought!

This is an article from almost a year ago, last edited July 3, 2025...

As someone who also loves Kagi, what do you like so much about Fastmail? Seeing it compared to Kagi makes me want to give it a try as well haha.

I think the comparison is that they just seem to give a shit about putting out a very good product. Filter and snooze automatically is probably my favorite unique capability but it’s less one thing than the overall ethos and execution.

Also, real support! Your email is important, you should be able to open a ticket and reach someone that knows what they’re doing.

Just like parent poster, there's a few things I pay for, and those are Kagi and Fastmail :)

Fastmail is... FAST. The page refresh is basically instant, and the UI is super-snappy, well refined and something like 2026, while Gmail hasn't changed in... 15 years? It supports a lot of features (identities, masked addresses, ...), not to mention that I can have my domains properly hosted on it, for 5eur/mo.

thank you lol, this has convinced me to switch over to fastmail

Fastmail is like Gmail used to be: fast, good search, functional spam filter. I have my own domain so switching took a couple of minutes and over the next week I realized that I never once regretted it – I saw less spam and I was surprised by how much stuff like infrequent newsletters I’d missed because Gmail was filtering it incorrectly while letting through tons of marketing junk.

I've had generally good experiences with Exa, I use it as an MCP in all my various coding tools and use the API whenever I build an AI thing that needs search.

Also an extremely happy Kagi user but can't speak to their API, haven't tried it yet.

And I just checked kagi search API is in public preview now

kagi seems to provide a mcp server as well although maybe no direct API access

To be fair, just because you understand the code you see doesn't mean its safe to copy-paste. Many of these compromised sites will show something that appears to be a benign command but will be something entirely different when you copy them.

Not good to get people into the habit of copying and running code in their terminal.

They will never remove tissue if you're still alive. This is the reason organ donation is most common in brain-death cases, because the tissue is still alive but you are entirely dead. As you point out, it would be horrible to dismember someone who is still alive and would certainly violate their oath.

I hope this is a comforting answer, I choose to be an organ donor because of these details.
