It sometimes bothers me how all these internet companies just throw you into an email+phone login flow, block all email domains except for a few big ones and then assume that is all very open and the internet is great.

This is so goddamn terrible. And all big email providers will only give you an address if you give them your phone number.
Solution = stay away from them.
Recently tried to sign up for a petco account for the discounts using ProtonMail. It said, "This is not a valid email domain"...but they still put me on their mailing / marketing list.
ahahah
Sometimes? lol it’s sooo annoying. The fact that some websites give you an option to skip the phone number makes me happy and that is depressing.
This is honestly the most refreshing thing about nostr. I haven't had to make a new account for jackshit
That's why I follow the principle of "few is better".
