It would be great if all the workers would agree on this collectively, rather than just one offs.

What does Migadu do? I'm not understanding what "consolidation" means in this context. ELI5?

Interesting. Wouldn't it be easier with a catch-all? Like if I walk into a business and they ask me for an email I could give them business1@domain.com. And then business2@domain.com for the business next door.

Fair enough. So do you do a custom domain for every single service you use?

Need is not temporary. Looking to keep unique email addresses tied to services.

I started looking into email alias services like SimpleLogin, Addy, etc. and I'm wondering if I really need it. Here's why:

My email provider has domain alias functionality. I can connect multiple domains to it. Let's say I'm ratm@domain1.com.

I can buy domain2.com and create an email address called anon@domain2.com. All emails (to both addresses) will land in the same inbox.

I can also create a catch-all email address so that I can create login unique emails for each service, like: lemmy@domain2.com, mastodon@domain2.com, etc.

So I guess my question is: What do I get from an email alias service that I'm not already getting from my email provider?

Is it maybe that I won't be able to reply from the service emails? Like, would I not be able to reply from lemmy@domain2.com since it's only a catch-all? So I can receive mail to it, but can't send from it?

Would a faulty implementation be only if you did it manually? In other words, if I just go through the motions of turning on the VPN, theoretically there should be no leak right?

Recently came across articles and videos of women who are actively fighting to lose their right to vote (they only want their husbands to), so yeah, this tracks.

Should you change your DNS if you have your VPN on?

This is your brain on AI.

That that's why Sam Altman (who's gay) is pushing AI so hard. He's trying to get pregnant. Illuminati confirmed.
