1 year agoI agree with the tradeoffs stated here, but I’d argue that any email address you hand out can serve as a unique data point, tied to you.
[email protected] for obvious reasons.
[email protected] — easy to filter out the plus and everything after, and it’s very likely more people use this format than [email protected], making more likely that this filtering would actually be automatically applied.
Yeah, email relays are probably better. I wasn’t necessarily considering those in my comment. But there are tradeoffs there too; now all your incoming mail can be read by a 3rd party, and there’s one more server between you and your email that needs to be up and working for you to properly receive mail.
