SEO has essentially destroyed search engines, what are some very useful websites that you might not get given by Google?

    Last I saw, Google charges for this. More than this guy’s service.

    Also, it seems like his service is about automatically having username-category email addresses. Definitely not hard to replicate, but it circumvents the common blocking of plus-signs in email addresses you see nowadays. And while not hard, it’s a bit less trivial to catch any old email with a dash in it and “magically” convert it to a category in the main inbox.

      Google doesn’t even factor into this. Go to your registrar of choice (namecheap, etc), buy a domain, and setup that domain to forward all emails to your email address.

      So if you have [email protected] and you just bought abraxas.me, in namecheap you can setup *@abraxas.me to go to your gmail account, and then sign up for sites using [email protected] you want. There’s no + or - involved, use any word you want. Signing up for lemmy.world? [email protected] will go right to your gmail (or whatever email you use)
