      I still have an aol and hotmail address. I use them for trash website and services that i dont want to give my main email address to. I wouldnt dare open my aol inbox. I might get covid or something.

        Yeah, my hotmail account is my junk mail collector. Whenever something requires an email addy, that’s what I write down.

        Wild world that we live in. I have a junk phone number, too

        I have two Gmail accounts. One for important stuff, that should send me notifications, and one for all the other things - though I do unsubscribe from junk.

        People I know who still use Hotmail get an insane amount of phishing emails. It’s actually scary. Gmail does its job.
