  1. #ios #mimestream

    Even better, I now have Mimestream beta on my iPhone. Working nice so far. I just had to turn off notification sounds and notifications on my watch.

  2. Mimestream has announced it iOS beta. Hooray, Google Mail without the Google app.

  3. Mimestream confirme son statut de meilleur client Gmail pour Mac dlvr.it/TQR6s2 #Mimestream #Gmail

  4. Giving #Mimestream another chance, but I'm still not sold on it without an iPhone app. The Mac app is fantastic, works really well, and it's *fast* but I really cannot do without the same email experience on my phone.

  5. @grymas_tysiaclecia Ad. Poczta - uważam że #Mimestream jest super aplikacją. Ale to kolejna subskrypcja, a te staram się ograniczać.

    Ad. #Things3 - bardzo lubię i używam od paru już lat. Co sprawia, że wysoki koszt wejścia już się zwrócił.

  6. I really like Mimestream but I cancelled my subscription renewal. I've been moving away from Gmail lately and have been using macOS Mail.app again.

    And if I'm being honest, as nice as Mimestream is, it is not “$50/year better than Mail.app" nice.

    This is tough because Mimestream is great and was free to use in beta for years. But I was disappointed that it joined the "everything is a subscription now" bandwagon.

    Also I still don't know what “mimestream" means.

  7. Follow up: These were actually emoji. It's not a vendor transcoding issue, but an application issue. The emoji display just fine on my computer (In Mimestream), but don’t look right in the mobile version of Airmail.

  8. Every #SparkMail update adds AI features designed to avoid reading or writing email, while the Mac app gets slower and flakier as an actual email client. Might have to jump back to Mail.app until #MimeStream supports IMAP/JMAP (hopefully someday 🙏).

  9. If you use Gmail and have a macOS computer (like a Macbook), then I highly recommend Mimestream :
    mimestream.com

    It offers a 14-day free trial that does NOT require a credit card and it's a snap to set up.

    After the trial is $55/year (including tax) or around $5.50/month.

    I tried it and like it a lot.. I had been becoming increasingly frustrated by Apple Mail, which doesn't work well at all. (They must give it very little attention.)

    Mimestream is a delight.

  10. One bummer about #MacOS now is that you used to be able to be pretty productive with the built in software. Now in order to get real work done, you need to pretty much immediately replace every default app. Safari, Mail, Photos, Pages, etc. Preview is still a rockstar but it’s sort of depressing.

    #Mimestream or #Thunderbird is a far better email client. #Photomator is what you want for an easy to use but robust photo editing tool, leaving #Photos in the dust. BetterSnapTool for a better Split View, #IINA for watching videos, #Hazel for file management.

    Still great hardware but the utility of the stock apps drops year over year.

  15. #Mimestream, a Gmail client for macOS, has launched version 1.1, which supports Google's Advanced Protection Program requiring hardware security keys. The updated version also offers larger text sizes, improved text handling and bug fixes.

  16. @viticci I'm always on the lookout for a better email client. I've been using #SparkMail for the last several years. Can't say I'm thrilled with some of the new "features" and I refuse to use the new interface. Maybe it's time to give #Mimestream a look.

  17. @JRP69 Recently I started to use #Mimestream and I am very happy with it.

    It is a client app for #GMail, but works super fast and reliable because it utilizes GMail’s API and not IMAP/POP3/SMTP protocols.

  18. My @mimestream beta has expired. 😢 Had to make the hard decision to have another subscription or not. 🤔 For a Email client that only works on the Mac and only supports Gmail… I decided to give it a go for a year. 🏁 Hope they will improve their support, offer a Windows version and adjust their prices. 💰💰💰#Mimestream #Gmail #Mac

  19. @adamengst @TidBITS I would include in the elegance not just the layout and general UI, but the entire user experience.

    There is a certain native app elegance that cannot be replicated on the web… or that people don’t bother to replicate.

    In any case, very happy with #Mimestream, thanks for discovering it to me!

  20. Ok, it's wired - i just installed #Mimestream half an hour ago and I already went from 1000+ unread emails to #Inbox-zero.

    Also I feel in control of my email. For the first time since #Google killed #Inbox.

    Thanks @mimestream !

    Looks like I need to budget another subscription… Damn… ;)

  25. Un ex ingegnere di Apple che lavorava a Mail ha lanciato l’app #Mimestream per gestire la posta di #Gmail

  27. @ike More modern than #Gmail *and* everything else you’re looking for? That’s a tall order. #Thunderbird has a lot of it, including a markdown plugin, but has to fight against its old-school reputation. #MailMate is a utilitarian power-user’s client for MacOS, but it’s not free. #Mimestream is a trendy, slick native Mac Gmail client, but doesn’t support scheduled send, and it’s in beta with unknown pricing.

    I used #Kiwi for a while, but always seem to end up back running Gmail in a browser.
