Restrictive Email Validation
My email is [email protected]. Often it isn't permitted when signing up to services. So I use a+[servicename]@ instead.Why is this so? I've never seen/written validation rules before so I don't know why this happens.Any other examples of regularly rejected email addresses?

I have a friend who has a disabled 18 year old son. Sometimes when the disabled bathroom is busy, he or his wife will go into a cubicle with the son to help - would that activate the no sex alarm?

Currently in London with a group of four colleagues - issues are affecting all of us. Especially Instagram, where photos are not loading nor are stories. This has remained for hours.

I used Kiwix - I live in London and commute via the tube network. There is patchy wifi at stations but it's not worth using.
So when commuting, kiwix is great. Often I'll be listening to a podcast and want to look up something mentioned offline.
Offline use cases seem to get forgotten. For example, Spotify offline mode is terrible and does not allow you to browse your library of downloaded tracks. Instead, you have to scroll through everything and look for those which are available offline.
