I hope it is a way to solve this…

    So they say they want to block burner accounts because those are used for abuse.

    But when they say “burner,” they don’t mean “used for spam.” They mean “don’t know your identity.”

    This is why the people defending the blocks are talking over you. They’re saying they want to stop abuse, but their actions are simply harming privacy.

    Okay why do these random packages keep popping up with this? For attention?
    It’s irrelevant, they are barely used by anyone and if a site blocks legitimate e-mail providers, then it is not a site worth registering with in the first place.

    Is this the new interaction bait post?

    It’s not just Protonmail.

    Blacklists like these aggressively and unapologetically collect all privacy-focused email domains they find, including simple forwarding and tagging services. With more and more sites using these lists to reject or black-hole email addresses, it has become difficult to protect one’s self from spam and cross-site account tracking.

    Dear web developers, please don’t use these lists. Well-intended or not, they are privacy and user-hostile.

      Devs can use them to block DISPOSABLE mails, not PRIVACY legitimate emails. That’s why it is critical to remove privacy oriented email domains from such lists

        That’s what they claim, but in practice, they seldom distinguish between the two.

    It’s said in the thread you’ve linked that they have already been removed from the blocklist.

        Yup. Open that link, ‘find in page’, search for any of the domains listed on that original post and none are found.

        They’ve been removed from the list.

            One that was missed I guess. I didn’t take the time to search every single one.

            As the rest have been removed, I can only assume their intention was to remove them.

            Try speaking with the list maintainer about it instead of a random lemmy post they have no idea about…

    I saw the other day Tuta complaining that Outlook has been sending emails from tutanota.com straight to junk/spam. What’s surprising is tuta.com emails were fine. So not sure if their domain change had anything to do with it, or if MS is doing the same thing as in the OP.

      Look. Outlook, Yahoo, ICloud, even Gmail provides temp mails solutions, but nobody complains or blocks them.

      Also you can use something like this that will create disposable Gmail every time. So blocking Proton is totally useless
