My email is firstname.lastname@protonmail.com so it's not exactly anonymous.
Edit: My real email obviously has my actual name on it.
That seems about as anonymous as they come.
Naturally I don't include my real name in the example.
That's funny, I have firstnamelastname@protonmail.com
That's just an example. My real email has my actual name on it.
Yeah mine too, but am not going to put my full name here. The joke was mine is almost the same, but we have different names (I guess) so they are completely different. But now I want firstnamelastname@protonmail.com. By the way, did you know your email works without the dot too? Or when you add multiple dots? You can also add +sitename before the @ so you can see who sold your data. So, first.name.last.n.a.m.e+lemmy@protonmail.com works just as well as firstname.lastname@protonmail.com and firstnamelastname+lemmy@proton.me
Edit: firstnamelastname@proton is already in use :'(
So it's your fault they had to add a period between firstname and lastname!
Now it's a race to get a good number like firstnamelastname69 or 112358.
