My email has been leaked 20 times now, how lovely
Buddy, you need this more than I do

I exclusively use alias emails and have found the down side. If you use an alias email for each site you visit (let’s say an online shop that is ran by Shopify) there is an extremely high chance your purchase will be flagged (fuck you Shopify) as a fraudulent account. I am constantly being flagged on sites with Shopify back ends for fraud. It really sucks when your hoppy (FPV Drones) is mainly ran by Shopify sites.
P.S. There is no one to help resolve these issues with Shopify as they don’t have a customer support unless you’re a customer and the store owners are either dumb on how to help or just plain lazy.
I found a .com domain helps with this. You can find some ugly ones for cheap
I currently own and use a @example.com. My aliases are formatted as such word.word####@domain.com (Example: fast.goat8376@lemmy.com
