Now that a lot of the commotion has subsided I’m just curious to know how y’all are finding the Lemmy experience in general and whether you use it regularly like you did reddit?

    I own a domain, for example xyz.com, which means I can create whatever email I want, like [email protected].

    The mail server I set up forwards all emails to one inbox. Which means I still get an email if you send it to [email protected] or [email protected] and so on, you get the idea.

    So when I sign up for an account I don’t use a general email (except for banking stuff, taxes, etc.). If I sign up for Facebook (good riddance) I’d use [email protected]. That way I also know when I suddenly get a lot of spam who lost my email or sold it off :)

      Oh nice. I wasn’t thinking along the lines of self hosted email. Thanks for the insight.

      Maybe I’ll try to set up something similar in the future.

        In my case it’s self-hosted, but maybe there are email providers where you can use your own domain that enable the same feature (it’s called wildcard usually).
