We're still seeing a bunch of people signing up using a throw-away Email address. We have a valid reason for requiring your real Email address and it has nothing to do with SPAM. (We hate SPAM and we don't sell or give out your email address to anybody.)The reason is we need to be able to get in touch with you outside of Sharkey and the Fediverse if there is a problem with your account. If you use a throw-away Email address we have no way to contact you.We all believe in privacy as much as you probably do so that's why privacy email addresses are just fine! Proton Mail, Duck.com, Mozilla's Privacy Service, etc. are perfectly fine.It's only those throw-away email addresses or those mailboxes that are only valid for 10 minutes that we forbid.When we receive a new signup from somebody that has a throw-away email address we immediately block the domain along with every other domain that service is affiliated with.Also, every new user has to agree to the server rules when signing up, and near the top is our rule against throw-away accounts. So, if you're going to agree to our servers' rule and then break one of the top rules while signing up, then it makes me wonder what other rules are you planning to break?Pax.#FediAdmin #NSFWadmin
