For me its not realizing that my email aliases will stop working if I stop paying. Wish I would have just went with simplelogin
It kind of makes sense that a paid service stops working when you stop paying though...
Existing aliases continue to work on Simplelogin. And I wish I would have known that beforehand.
Just pay for SimpleLogin no? Proton owns SimpleLogin now.
I purchased SimpleLogin before Proton purchased them. I have my own domain configured with all my aliases which all point to a proton email address which I do not give to anyone.
I purposely created my own domain just so I could be flexible in the future and move to another provider if needed.
To add on, if you have Proton Unlimited, then SimpleLogin is free
If you can only get Service B by paying for Service A, then Service B isn't really free; it's just added value.
A nitpick, yes, but I feel it's an important one.
I guess you're right. I should've said that SimpleLogin Premium is included.
Duckduckgo has 1 alias for each device
