I wanted fastmail, but android integration is not great. I wish it integrated with contacts and it simply does not.

I recently had to choose between google workspace for my email and fastmail, I was really going all in on fastmail and then I hit something that really blocked me. I can't remember what it is though

It's pretty straightforward to sync the contacts on the phone with the contacts on Fastmail via CardDAV, using DAVx5 for example.

I've been using fastmail for over a decade. davx is fragile. Many phone brands (all the OnePlus for example) interact poorly with it. I regularly have to trigger syncs by hand.

Still better than google, but the story here is not great.
