The menus are definitely busy and confusing (there are many options), but once it’s set up I’ve never been bothered by the UI. I quite like how emails are shown OOTB in fact, with the right padding and day separation; I also use most buttons that are offered by default. So yeah, sane defaults.
Off the top of my head what I like:
- you can search emails on the server! That’s the one feature I couldn’t forgo
- it detects unsubscribe links
- I remember having delays when using K9, with FairEmail not once. This could be fixed now
- it cleverly shows you’re connected to a VPN (which can be a problem with emails)
- maybe too many options, but a lot are actually useful
Not trying to say it’s better, to each their own. But it’s great.
Ikea rechargeables batteries have been tested and are amongst the best, especially for the price
