SimpleLogin doesn't allow too many aliases for a given site like Reddit, even with a custom domain. I get that services don't want to ruin their own email domains, but I should be allowed to do whatever I want with my own domain.

I get that services don't want to ruin their own email domains, but I should be allowed to do whatever I want with my own domain.

Email works with both domain reputation and IP reputation. Even if you have your own domain you're still using their IPs for emails, they're still tied to it for abuse.

I've been hosting my own for over a decade, works great and no limits other than what the hardware can do. I'd recommend doing that since you already have a domain.

Isn't self hosting a bit of a nightmare nowadays? With IP reputation, DMARC and so on

I haven't heard of it being an issue for receiving. Sending is a whole other deal yeah. It works fine for signing up to accounts and stuff.

That said my emails have been making it to inbox just fine, but I do have a decade of good standing on that IP.
