how is Lemmy going for you?
Now that a lot of the commotion has subsided I'm just curious to know how y'all are finding the Lemmy experience in general and whether you use it regularly like you did reddit?

How do you create a custom email for everything? That seems hard to me
I own a domain, for example xyz.com, which means I can create whatever email I want, like lemmy@xyz.com.
The mail server I set up forwards all emails to one inbox. Which means I still get an email if you send it to reddit@xyz.com or whatever@xyz.com and so on, you get the idea.
So when I sign up for an account I don't use a general email (except for banking stuff, taxes, etc.). If I sign up for Facebook (good riddance) I'd use facebook@xyz.com. That way I also know when I suddenly get a lot of spam who lost my email or sold it off :)
Oh nice. I wasn't thinking along the lines of self hosted email. Thanks for the insight.
Maybe I'll try to set up something similar in the future.
In my case it's self-hosted, but maybe there are email providers where you can use your own domain that enable the same feature (it's called wildcard usually).
