I use a .xyz domain for my personal email, and I sort of regret it.

My emails have a tendency to become spam filter bycatch, to the point that when I was job hunting last year I'd have to ring people after I sent them my resumes etc. to confirm they actually received my email.

And when I give people my email address, I usually have to assure them that [email protected] is a legitimate email address and not a joke (it's not actually steve, but you get the point).

I host my own email server, and .xyz is one of the 2 or 3 TLDs I went in the config files and manually blocked since nothing but spam comes from it (and lots of it).

Definitely would not recommend using it for your personal address.
