Not that many people use email much anymore, but as you often need an email address to sign up for other shit… anyway, I need a better option than gmail, I’m sure you can appreciate why. Email is so old school at this point that most of the time I don’t even think about it anymore.

Anyway, I need some email options that aren’t gmail or otherwise attached to a billionaire. I’m not really interested in non-email methods of communication, I’m specifically asking about email.

Thanks in advance.

    While we’re at it, anyone got a good site for temporary addresses that are basically used exactly once? And ideally don’t immediately get flagged as spam addresses.

      To DIY you can buy your own domain and attach it to any paid email provider, then you get an infinite amount of temporary addresses. e.g. if you own @ rumschlumpel.blahblahblah.org then you can create abc@ , xyz@ , abc123@ , etc. as much as you like.

      Just about all the email provider suggestions in this thread have a paid tier that you can configure your own domain with.

        Mailbox.org already provides 3 different aliases even at the lowest tier, but I’ve already filled those with non-temporary aliases and I don’t really want to pay three times as much just for throwaway-aliases …
