I researched this stuff a LOT. I originally only knew about anonaddy but it’s a pain to set up self hosted. There’s a lot of options but I really like the proton setup: proton pass + proton mail. Lets you respond to emails from the fake email created very easily.

My flow is like this: some website asks for my email, proton pass extension suggests a fake email using domain.hash@passinbox.com for example: shoppingwebsite.1c8sn@passinbox.com

I think it’s the best of all worlds and it’s why I switched from bitwarden as the flow is way faster and easier to use. And it’s a cinch to respond to emails from proton mail.

I believe it is using SimpleLogin in the background. I tested out simple login integration with bitwarden and found the proton pass implementation, plus integration with proton mail to be far superior. I use a fake email with every new sign up and don’t really hesitate to sign up for random shit anymore cuz I can just delete the email address.

I believe proton will also include it in their mail offering. I don’t buy proton mail because their free tier is more than sufficient for me. I only subscribe to the proton pass for now which is a good deal because the simplelogin stuff comes free with it. I did quite a bit of research, comparing bitwarden + simplelogin/fastmail, 1password + fastmail, etc. proton pass comes out ahead in terms of value though I’d say it’s late stage beta software more than a complete package like bitwarden or 1password. I believe it’ll have feature parity soon though.

Yeah. Giving the benefit of the doubt, maybe there’s something in their toolchain that’s causing it and not a deliberate decision to block proton emails.

Yeah it really sets the stage poorly. Netbird is messed up in that it accepts the email and makes you think everything is working, except your admin panel doesn’t have anything in it. I spent hours troubleshooting before knowing anything was off.

Lol you have to be kidding. I signed up less than a month ago. Proton Pass’s killer feature is it can generate an email address kinda like addy and fastmail do. for example you might chess.1310fj@passinbox.com for chess.com.

It’s still fairly rough though. It misses lots of login fields that bitwarden didn’t, but I expect it’ll improve. In the time I’ve had it, they addressed a frequently requested feature, which is allowing webapps. It’s not an official one, but you can open the extension in a window, copy the url and make a webapp from that. So it feels a little half backed but for the price it really is a solid value.

Also I really like that there’s no tinkering required to integrate the fake emails it creates with your proton mailbox. You can reply to an email sent to your fake email address, and the person who sent the email will see it as though it came from your fake address. This can be a pain in the ass.

That said, I’ve had two websites reject my proton pass emails, netbird.io (which is ironic for a purported privacy focused business), and Oracle cloud, which is not surprising at all.

Especially considering they were injecting affiliate links/replacing affiliate links with their own, everything they do should be seen through that lens. They literally thought it was either OK to do which means that behavior like this is going to happen and keep happening with them, OR they thought they could get away with it which ends up with the same result.
