      Yeah, use an email relay service like Firefox Relay, SimpleLogin, the one from Proton if you have an account with them (that’s SimpleLogin behind)…

      You can create email aliases, that will relay the email to your main address. Create a new alias for each website so they can’t use your email address to correlate your identity and you can close it anytime, you can even configure an alias to only allow a set amount of messages and auto-close afterward.

      Don’t give out your email to spammers. Most legitimate businesses might send quite a lot of mail, but it’s very often easy to unsubscribe so do that.

        Don’t give out your email to spammers

        No shit Sherlock. The real cause of spammers getting your email is through data breaches. The only thing you can do about that is not use your personal mail address for every single website you create an account for.
