Received a fun email about a service that I used once to buy something years ago having suffered a cyberattack in 2018/2019. Emails and passwords were leaked and sold in the dark web.
How wonderful
@weltsnake AnonAddy + unique passwords saves you like every time.
@weltsnake Yeah same - I've got a few that I don't have under AnonAddy but they're just in old gmails that I don't use anymore. I hate that anonaddy is locked to no more than 20 emails unless you want to cough up money. I mean I know its cheap but still - kinda sucks.
@ThreeBadgersInATrenchcoat yeah, because of that limitation I chose one of the plans. I also like to support the developer. I think you should also look into SimpleLogin and compare what it offers in relation to AnonAddy
@weltsnake SimpleLogin is nice but they have even less free aliases and their paid plans are much more expensive, although they are more advantageous in some ways. I'm all for supporting developers of projects you like, but I don't think they should essentially make their program almost impossible to truly use to any extent if you don't give them your money, with no way around it. I dunno, maybe that's just me.
@ThreeBadgersInATrenchcoat yeah i understand where you’re coming from. For example a omeone who’s on a difficult financial situation shouldn’t have to surrender their privacy because they can’t pay at the moment. I’m sure there will be more options available in the future but for now these are the 2 best and if you really want to take advantage of them you have to pay :/. Hopefully they change their models or at least offer better features to their free plans
@ThreeBadgersInATrenchcoat that’s literally my setup for everything else lol I love AnonAddy. That was just an old account I totally forgot about
