What are the benefits of using those sites?

I’ve heard Yahoo! is good for stock market trading and financial news, but haven’t heard anything else about any of them.

    I use both Yahoo and Gmail, but I prefer yahoo because my account is grandfathered in to using disposable email accounts.

    And don’t tell me about [email protected] because not every website accepts emails with + in them, and any idiot can run a script to strip it off and get your real email address.

    I use this feature all the freaking time and Gmail offers nothing close.

      I used to use Proton and simple login for this but I now own my own domain so I can use whatever address I want as long as it ends with @mydomain.com

        I’m too cheap for this, I guess (proton mail is paid, right?).

        I don’t really have a need for my own domain. And anything I want to register seems to be taken anyway. Feels like a bigger decision than picking a tattoo. :D

          To use your own domain with Proton is paid. So you have to pay for a Proton and your domain in order to do that. It’s really too bad because it would be fucking awesome if I could use my tor hidden service as my domain. That way I didn’t have to pay for it. So my email might be like contact @ blahblahblah.onion.
