thought you guys would find this blog post from Brian Leiter today funny. he's a pretty good guy and a respected scholar so no shade on him, clearly just misinformed. i wonder if this is in some way downstream of the recent political drama around proton.

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 :'(
