Ask HN: Custom domain name for personal email?

from the ask-hn dept.

Hi HN! For those who aren't using a @gmail.com, what are you using? I'm trying to migrate off @gmail.com because of platform risk, but coming up with a domain name is hard! It must be professional! Bonus points if I can share the domain with family members for their use too.Thanks for any help!

Now that they've been fired, the gov't has lost the goodwill/loyalty from the staff. In other words, the gov't is competing with private industry rates. Unfortunately for taxpayers, rehiring is always more expensive.
Re:Ask HN: Why buy domains and 301 redirect them to me? on Friday January 24, 2025 @09:12AM (#42813187)
Yes, phishing. It might happen in the future, it could be happening right now, emails from getexample.com, a specific path on getexample.com that doesn't redirect to the real thing, etc.

That's not because they become obsolete, it's because they're the rate-limiting step (bottleneck).
