Good time to plug something like addy.io or SimpleLogin (especially if you already use a paid Protonmail account). They let you create dummy emails that forward to your real email so your real email is never exposed to any site, you can have a different email for every site or different categories that you can save in a password manager, and can narrow down which sites leaked your stuff and change just that one or shut the account down entirely. I never use my real name, birthdate, or email on any site that isn't something like a bank.
my bluesky account is registered to a throwaway, but once i realized this shit was pretty clearly happening i needed to make sure i warned people
oh hey I heard you were on here now in the mod chat and some kinda semi big account welcome comrade.
I've been using Firefox Relay. Should I switch to something else? I already have 27 email masks with them and switching would be a real pain in the ass.
Nah, you're probably fine, I just posted the two I was most familiar with. Just comes down to how much you trust the service provider you're paying. I use addy.io myself. Most important thing is turning on any optional encryption features they might have and masking your email in the first place.
I like Firefox relay
You can also use the free tier of Proton Pass to get 10 free email aliases if you aren't on the paid tier for Proton Mail.
