So, a lot of websites filter out known trash mail domains and won't allow any of their email addresses for sign up. I don't see that Simplelogin or Addy can circumvent that (beside using a custom domain which however will be linked to your name via the registrar).
How do you manage websites with such restrictions?
I usually just create a burner Proton Mail account in that case, and keep note of its details and purpose in my Password Manager so I don't forget.
That's something I'm doing too. I wish there was a nicer way though.
Thanks for the reply!
On simplelogin premium you can get your own subdomain from them. For example, you can have the subdomain @computer.simplelogin.com. In my experience these might work even when the domain is blocked for sign up
Ah, nice, will try that out. I guess the success rate depends on the way the sites filte email addresses.
Thanks for the reply!
