:marseymailwoman: GitHub drama as OP suggests adding Protonmail and Simplelogin to the fake email filter list, and lemmings brigade the thread to express their disapproval :marseycodecel: :!marseymouse:

Honestly, the more these one time accounts try to convince me to remove protonmail and simplelogin, the more I see how much it's needed to block them. It's like the marketing team is desperately trying to keep their services from being rightfully flagged and it just makes me want to block them even more. I do hope they won't cloud your judgement @7c , as these services are used for temp emails by all definitions. If you have any questions you may always ask me from the conversation we have started :) :gigachad2:

Owner decides against adding protonmail but the drama continues as he doubles down

More Github drama:

lemmy world thread

Sick of sites requiring an account, email or phone number. Makes the web even more unfriendly. I hope temporary emails can always get around filters, as if you play stupid games you should win stupid prices.

the discussion is happening here: https://github.com/7c/fakefilter/issues/73

Someone working at Proton has commented on the issue, the list maintainer wanted to take the discussion with proton private so we have only a few posts from them.

If you want my personal take:

It's very clear how the list maintainer opposes anonymity in the internet in any form, which I see as an attack on freedom, journ*lism and activism.

I'm not a fan of Protonmail of any sort and in fact I consider that their privacy is lacking… but I really hope they can talk some sense into this guy. This block list seems to be used by a lot of webs that will start blocking virtually every private email provider.

(Edit: I assumed the person that posted the email list was a maintainer, but they don't seem to have a “contributor” or “owner” badge, so idk. Maybe they are just very angry at privacy and anonymity on the internet)

The entire thread there is basically a clown wanting any free email account that isn't Gmail or Microsoft banned. Won't be at all surprised if that's politically motivated more than anything else, since anything that escapes corpo control is eeevil.
